Java record with final keyword
Although record classes in Java are [implicitly final](https://openjdk.org/jeps/395#Rules-for-record-classes), it's still valid to add the `final` modifier/keyword when declaring a record:
final public record Person(String name, String location) {}
Does `final` carry any special meaning here? Does it change the behavior of this record?
