My last concern is compatibility. If a dependent project is using a different
version of Immutables, what will be the impact?
{quote}
There is no runtime component in Immutables. However, one potential issue
might occur when someone tries to build calcite from the source. For example,
depending on current compile classpath immutables might be using guava
collections instead of JDK and this will affect the use of nulls.

> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> In the creation of CALCITE-3328, [Immutables|https://immutables.github.io/]
> was discussed as an alternative to a custom implementation. This ticket is to
> evaluate the impact to the codebase of changing. Ideally, introduction of
> immutables would both add flexibility and reduce the amount of code
> associated with these classes.
> Immutables works via annotation processor which means that it is should be
> relatively seamless to build systems and IDEs.
> The switch would also make it easier to work with these objects types in the
> context of aot compilation tools like GraalVM.
