Looks good. A comment relating to Serialization, from section 8.10.1 - Record
Components.
As all record types are subclasses of the class java.lang.Record which in turn
implements the interface java.io.Serializable, it is necessary to …
This is not true. j.i.Record does not implement Serializable. Not all records
are serializable.
A record may be serializable, if it implements the java.io.Serializable
interface, but it is not required. For example,
record SerializableFoo (int x, int y) implements java.io.Serializable { }
Additionally, I thought that all serialization related magic members were to be
restricted from being record component names ( they are just too odd and
potentially confusing ) ? The spec has some, but not all. The complete list (
of 7 ) is: writeObject, readObject, readObjectNoData, writeReplace,
readResolve, serialVersionUID, serialPersistentFields.
