Yes, academically seen, whenever there is a non-final getter, all methods within a class should use the getter instead of directly accessing the field. Or expressed the other way round: Whenever a class accesses a field directly the corresponding (public or protected) getter method should be defined as "final". Sounds logical, but nobody adheres this - including me! ;-) To your question: Yes, change direct field access to getter access, please.
