I see. Good catch Tim.
Daniel, you don't have this exact test case there.
Initially, in 8.0, only a visibility keyword would trigger the property
promotion logic.
Later, in 8.1, also the readonly keyword would trigger this and make the
property public, without the need to mention the visibility:

Now we want the same for the final keyword, to trigger the property
promotion without having a visibility keyword,
because like readonly, it would not be applicable to a parameter, but just
to a property?
