But keep in mind that by default, we skip replicating static, final, and transient now. If we want to change the default to replicate static field, question is how often people want to replicate static field? If often, then yes, default is good. But otherwise, default may not be that good.

And what about final field default?

Yeah, agreed then. I am still thinking if there is a better way to support it other than explicit api.

I will create a new thread to discuss this then.
