Totally agree, I was just pointing out to GP why LocalDate wasn’t a record. (Date and Calendar should never be used in new code. Note how the new date/time API doesn’t have any conversions to/from old types (Date+Calendar), they only in the opposite direction)

Can’t wait for destructuring support for classes, though.

Yes! Ever since I learned about it and was able to use it in some other languages I’ve been waiting for destructuring in Java to hit prime time.
