I wonder if we can be clearer as "may not" implies uncertainty. While it indeed
may or may not work due to the timing of the initialization of this class, my
understanding of the above statement is that it implied the runtime startup is
recommended as it provides assurance. Would it be better to put that in the
statement? sth. like: It is read once and cached at the Java runtime startup or
initialization of this class. A call after the initialization of this class
will not affect the order.
There's still uncertainty
