Moving toward deprecating force unwrap from Swift?

class NotEverythingIsNonNilUntilAllThingsAreLoaded {
    var thing: SomeThing?
    func someFunctionThatIsCalledWhenSomethingIsNeeded() -> SomeThing {
        self.thing = SomeThing()
        self.thing!.cat = 100 //it was just initalized, I don't need to check if self.thing not nil
        return self.thing! //I'm definitely not wrapping this in an if let to find out what I already know.
    }
}

No need for if let here

class NotEverythingIsNonNilUntilAllThingsAreLoaded {
    var thing: SomeThing?
    func someFunctionThatIsCalledWhenSomethingIsNeeded() -> SomeThing {
        let thing = SomeThing()
        thing.cat = 100 // no need for force unwrap
        self.thing = thing
        return thing
    }
}

Not disagreeing with the other things you wrote, just this one example seems like it can be solved.
