Reasoning behind exposing getGenericSignature in RecordComponent

[Rafael Winterhalter]

Hello,
I was wondering what the motivation was behind exposing the
getGenericSignature method in RecordComponent. This method also exists in
the Method and Field classes but is private there. If there is an argument
to expose the method in RecordComponent, wouldn't it make sense to also
expose it there? I am a bit surprised to find the method public in the
first place, few people have a relation to class format concepts at runtime.
Thanks for the clarification.
Best regards, Rafael
