But that approach will suffer from the same problems discussed earlier. Any
non final "immutable" class can be undone by a pesky subclass that doesn't
obey the immutability, deliberately or accidentally.
I guess it depends how much of a purist you are.
A weaker alternative is to mark your inner Pair object as private (which it
probably is) and mark all the public methods of ImmutablePairProxy as final
too.
