You *know* this, *for sure*? The only way I can think of that would
give you such certain knowledge that such a situation will not happen
is an automated, full-coverage unit test suite of all code that uses
your class. Which is an excellent position to be in, so I commend you
on your diligence.

So, why is it that you wish to restrict users of your class to never
do such normal operations with instances as in the above examples?
What problem are you solving by this restriction?
