/**
 * Why should we resort to using Unsafe?

 * 
 * To construct class fields which allow volatile/ordered/plain access: This requirement is covered by
 * {@link AtomicReferenceFieldUpdater} and similar but their performance is arguably worse than the DIY approach
 * (depending on JVM version) while Unsafe intrinsification is a far lesser challenge for JIT compilers.
 * 
To construct flavors of {@link AtomicReferenceArray}.
 * 
Other use cases exist but are not present in this library yet.
