Furthermore, I think in its current form it means that this will 
load/instantiate any `JdkConsoleProvider` implementations that are accessible 
to the thread context classloader but may not have been from the module 
configured through `jdk.console` system property. That could potentially mean, 
in the best case, unnecessary classloading of additional classes and in the 
worst case, could result in `ServiceLoader.Provider::get` throwing a 
`ServiceConfigurationError` error for any of such unused provider 
implementations, thus forcing us to use `java.io.Console` instance.
