The PR is more aimed at cases where there is something like this:


private static final MY_INT = JAVA_INT.withOrder(ByteOrder.LITTLE_ENDIAN);
private static final OTHER_INT = JAVA_INT.withBitAlignment(32);


I am happy to close this PR if the quorum is this would provide relatively little benefit compared to the added complexity.
