## IMPORTANT WARNINGS

1. APIs marked with the `@Beta` annotation at the class or method level
are subject to change. They can be modified in any way, or even

 * wouldn't behave as users might expect. Additionally, it's not clear how the TypeToken API could
 * support even a "normal" `TypeParameter<T>` when `<T>` has a nullable bound. (See the discussion
 * on TypeToken.where.) So, in the interest of failing fast and encouraging the user to switch to a
 * non-null bound if possible, let's require a non-null bound here.
