It is a limitation of the class file format that only formal parameters and modules can be flagged as ACC_MANDATED ([§4.7.24](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jvms/se21/html/jvms-4.html#jvms-4.7.24), [§4.7.25](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jvms/se21/html/jvms-4.html#jvms-4.7.25)) to indicate that, despite being compiler-generated, they are not considered implementation artifacts. There is no way to flag other compiler-generated constructs so that they too are not considered implementation artifacts (JLS §13.1). This limitation means that reflective APIs of the Java SE Platform may not accurately indicate the "mandated" status of such constructs. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/16461#discussion_r1379931703
