Hi, It is true, that static methods can't be overridden in a subclass, however they can be hidden. So final keyword prevents method hiding. It also helps make the code explicit. Finally, the final keyword can slightly improve performance because the JVM should not check if the method is hidden or overridden in a subclass.
Just two cents.
