    If you keep the code evolution in mind, simple getters in v1.0 tend to become not-so-simple getters in v2.0.

    The coder who changes a simple getter to not-so-simple getter usually has no clue that there is a function that calls this getter 10 times instead of 1 and never corrects it there, etc.

    That's why from the point of view of the DRY principal it makes sense to cache value for repeated use.

    Your lead is correct. In modern versions of the VM, simple getters that return a private field are inlined, meaning the performance overhead of a method call doesn't exist.
