/**

 * Do not use this interface for public or protected declarations: it is a fig leaf for
 * bad design, and it does not prevent anyone from using the declaration---and experience has shown
 * that they will. If the method breaks the encapsulation of its class, then its internal
 * representation will be hard to change. Instead, use RestrictedApiChecker, which enforces
 * fine-grained visibility policies.
