It's technical debt that ForceEarlyReturnVoid didn't clearly document that it could be used to force early return from constructors or static initializers. There was discussion on this in the CSR wondering about this. In time, the restriction will need to be extended to class initializers then the class has strictly-initialized static fields. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/valhalla/pull/2604#discussion_r3508337809
