It seems we want to obstruct users from creating the object - that means we 
need to disable users to new/extend it. If I understand it correctly, using the 
interface is a suitable way. Maybe we can have introduce a new annotation to 
explicitly remind users not to implement the interface. If we are in Java 17, 
the annotation can be replaced by sealed keyword.

Best,
