Modify attributes of inherited property

I defined a subclass which inherits a built-in class (mechss) and extends it with some additional properties and methods. Because of my additional properties, the terminology becomes somewhat confusing and I would like to change the property names of the superclass. For example, I would like to change the property C to be called L.
As far as I understand, this is not possible, but I cán define the new property L and relate it to C using get and set methods. This leaves me with two identical properties however, and I would like to hide C and make its access protected.
Is something like this possible?

Not directly, but you can overload the display() method, customizing it so that C is never displayed at the command line. Similarly, you can customize subsref() and subsasgn() so that dot indexing outside the class does not allow access to C.

For that matter, if you're overloading these methods, you don't have to create a 2nd property L. You can just customize the display and susbref/subsasgn so that when the alias obj.L is invoked, the value of C is accessed instead.

You could instead author your own class that passes through to a mechss object it stores as a private property. Then you can call the properties whatever you want.

The benefit of this approach is if MathWorks changes something in mechss (e.g. overloads indexing which it could), your solution won't break. And it's likely faster than overloading indexing.
Is the main challenge just naming confusion? If yes, maybe consider less confusing names, or names with a pattern/prefix that's easy to distinquish?
E.g., making things up
classdef electromechss < mechss
properties
electroC
electroL
end
methods
electroWhatever1
electroWhatever2
end
end
