/**
* This annotation marks part of internal compiler API related to type refinement.
*
* Marking such API explicitly has two objectives:
* - prevent unconscious abuse of invasive API (like DelegatingSimpleType.replaceDelegate),
* which shouldn't be needed by anything outside of type refinement
* - improve readability of classes by separating API
*
* If you're using related API outside of MPP context, it's a nice idea to consider
* either finding some other API or removing @TypeRefinement (and thus "publishing"
* API for broader use)
