  If I wasn't already clear, this isn't something that normal devs should have or want to think about. But it's hard to avoid if you end up dealing with separate compilation units that are run on a different build schedule. Sooner or later your refactoring will either blow up with an obscure error, or work even though if you really think about it, the compiler would say it shouldn't. And of course if you actually dig you'll find it out as well. If you want sophisticated dispatch you want to use invokedynamic, but that was an RFE when I was learning about this stuff.
