I agree with Darrel, Bill has made some very compelling arguments.
I also add my vote of -1 to remove "noisy" final keywords from local
variables.
I am VERY interested in understanding how the JVM would handle this, as
final is a keyword that stops the reassignment of the variable with
another value. It would never stop immutability concerns. This can only
be achieved by following stricter rules regarding how Pojos are created
and coding practices.
I believe it is better to be more secure and opt-out when not required,
than trying to add-in being more secure (as you are more likely to miss
things).

I find Bill's argument of using final by default on everything convincing
and removing it when you have something that needs to be changed.
It is not in keeping with my current practice but I'm willing to change.
So I vote -1 to not using "final" on local variables.
