Remarks 1. The `INSTANCE` fields should be declared `final`, still safe for lazy initialization. 2. Not from this patch, but the `AttributeStability stability()` overrides can be moved to `AbstractAttributeMapper`, stored in a field, to decrease source code size. 3. `AbstractAttributeMapper` might become sealed now that its implementations are no longer anonymous, might move it to be a private nested class of `Attributes` to omit the long list of permits. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/19006#issuecomment-2083832111
