Can anyone point out a reason why the value based
lists of List.of() should serialize while the value based
lists of List.of().subList() should not? Or is there some
reason we should not allow subList to produce value
based lists?
One thing that might be implied from the specification that talks
about "...a view of the portion of this list between the specified
indexes..." is that the view keeps a reference to the original list.
This is observable if combined with Reference object(s). But I don't
know if this is an important behavioral detail that any code depends on.
Regards, Peter
BTW, ImmutableCollections.AbstractImmutableList.SubList already violates
that assumption and nobody is complaining.
