Sorry, this got derailed by the discussion of 
`SequencedCollection::replaceAll`. I think we should just set that issue aside. 
I don't think `SequencedCollection::replaceAll` makes sense, thus this PR 
shouldn't be held up on its account.

The change is fine in concept. A couple adjustments needs to be made: javadoc 
since-tags need to be updated to 21, and copyrights updated to 2023. (Well, 
maybe an argument could be made that they should stay at 2022. I don't 
particularly care.) Also, the CSR should be updated to reflect the changes to 
the specifications. Other than those items, this should be fine to move forward.
