Different behavior between (F) and (Object & F)

[bitter_fox]

Hi,
There is a different behavior in the same semantics:

public class Main
{
    interface F
    {
        void m();
        default void clone() throws CloneNotSupportedException {}
    }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        Object o;

        // implicit Object
        o = (F) () -> {}; // pass compiler check

        // explicit Object
        o = (Object & F) () -> {}; // compile time error
    }
}

Compiler rejects "(Object & F) () -> {}", but it accepts "(F) () -> {}".
Is this the correct behavior?

This is the compile error by "(Object & F) () -> {}":

Main.java:18: error: clone() in Object cannot implement clone() in F
                o = (Object & F) () -> {}; // compile time error
                    ^
  attempting to assign weaker access privileges; was public
1 error
