Prior to about 2013, many class methods lacked even access modifiers which made the `@access` notations that much more useful. Now that we've gotten to a point where the codebase is more mature from a maintenance perspective and we can finally remove these notations. Notable exceptions to this change include standalone functions notated as private as well as some classes still considered to represent "private" APIs.

It's important for every file in WordPress, regardless of makeup or architecture, to have its own file header, even if the file contains nothing but a class. When parsed, files and classes are mutually exclusive and should be documented with this in mind.
