No counter-arguments to the provided rationale for private instance fields.
[Consensus has been to avoid protected variables.]
> private vars in MixtureMultivariateRealDistribution

> Key: MATH-1087
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1087
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 3.2
> Reporter: Jirka Borovec
> Labels: features
> Fix For: 3.3

> Original Estimate: 0.1h
> Remaining Estimate: 0.1h

> May I have question why the variables
> private final double[] weight;
> private final List<T> distribution;
> in MixtureMultivariateRealDistribution are private not only protected. I
> wanted to extend this class for some other distributions but after inheriting
> they are not accessible so difficult to handle. Even I cannot save the list
> anywhere else in child because in constructor and also in the getter it
> creates a new list with these components.
