Removing those would solve the problem, as the read/write synchronization is performed at the StreamEn/Decoder level. One unrelated change is to refactor double-checked locking with LazyConstant.

I am not familiar with `@ValueBased` and I just read up its documentation. Based on what it says about constructors https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/doc-files/ValueBased.html#L48:

since `ProxyingConsole` declares a `ProxyingConsole(JdkConsole delegate)` constructor, does it still qualify as a `@ValueBased` class?
