This has nothing to do with Ruby's grammar. I think I know what

These are basically introduced because you chose to have a property
setter which modifies the value on the fly - this is also a
questionable approach.

I find that rather foggy. What code are you talking about exactly?

I do not think the thing that you call "initialization grammar"
exists. Inherit from Hash and Array and you won't see instance
variables either. Actually, all classes which are implemented in C
(which includes std lib as well as extensions) do have the liberty to
store the state in any way they like. Generally using accessors to
modify state is a safer method. It just happens that in most user
written classes the direct access to instance variables works and
gives expected results.

It doesn't - at least not directly. Struct.new creates a new class
which sits between them.
irb(main):002:0> class A < Struct.new(:num); end
=> nil
irb(main):003:0> A.ancestors

First of all @num is not a method. This is an instance variable read access.
The method does not exist in Struct - and it can't for obvious reasons.
irb(main):005:0> Struct.instance_method :num
NameError: undefined method `num' for class `Struct'
from (irb):5:in `instance_method'
from (irb):5
from /usr/local/bin/irb19:12:in `<main>'
Instead it's defined in the anonymous superclass of A:
irb(main):006:0> A.instance_method :num
=> #<UnboundMethod: A(#<Class:0x8b37678>)#num>
irb(main):007:0> A.instance_method(:num).owner
=> #<Class:0x8b37678>

It's obvious that you get wrong values if you create flawed logic.
This is also not what I had suggested.

That is not true. If you only want to modify values during
initialization you can always do
S = Struct.new :a, :b do
def initialize(a, b)
self.a = a * 33
self.b = b / 10
end
end
irb(main):026:0> x = S.new 100, 200
=> #<struct S a=3300, b=20>
irb(main):027:0> x.a
=> 3300
irb(main):028:0> x.b
=> 20
You even can omit the super invocation.

That's not a dirty trick - it's just a slightly inconvenient way to
use Struct because one cannot use #initialize as predefined. Other
than that this is what you would for a regular class as well. But you
still benefit from properly defined #eql?, #hash, #[] etc. You're
simply not using the default constructor but still gain useful
functionality. Heck, it doesn't even involve meta programming. For
me this does not qualify as hack or trickery.
