(5 becomes 8, which is sufficient for 6 mappings with a 75% load factor).  If you want to express the intent more clearly, use `HashMap.newHashMap(5)`.

I feel that the default initial capacity of 16 is more than can be reasonably expected for transitions. However, I did not use any rigorous methodology to come up with the number 5. I can add a comment, though.
