The `ParameterData.parameters` field can probably be marked as [`@Stable`] 
(since the `parameters` array is never modified):
Suggestion:

    record ParameterData(@Stable Parameter[] parameters, boolean real) {}


Also the `real` record component should probably be renamed to `isReal` as 
@liach suggested in [GH‑9143 (comment)].
