I think your intuition is correct: you probably don’t.
That’s also very likely changing. Lookup “project Valhalla”. It’s still a work in progress but the high level goal is to have immutable values that “code like a class, work like an int”.
PS When I say “changing”: it’s being added. Java tries hard to maintain backward compatibility for most things (which is great).
