   After pondering this a bit more I think I'm okay with this as a solution to 
the immediate problem.  At the end of the day we'll have a problem if we don't 
keep the Java8 compiled class files around.  If we want to test with other JVMs 
we'll need to be able to switch to those JVMs and we can't have recompilation 
in that case.
   
   Actually... wait... why is that true?  If we switch to a Java11 JDK why 
aren't we building Java8-compatible class files anyway?  We... specify that we 
want the [target version produced by the 
compiler](https://github.com/apache/cassandra-java-driver/blob/4.x/pom.xml#L608)
 to be 1.8... so how are we winding up with version 55 code _at all_?
   
   I'm still gonna approve this because I agree we have a much clearer 
understanding of the mechanism now but it still feels like something is missing 
here.
