Please revert this, we shouldn't be making SonarCloud rules more lax just to make the CI green, especially without a proper justification in the PR discussion.

If this is valid and absolutely necessary, then please share your thought process.

### Lambda SnapStart priming

The Tracing utility integrates with AWS Lambda SnapStart to improve restore durations. To make sure the SnapStart priming logic of this utility runs correctly, you need an explicit reference to `TracingUtils` in your code to allow the library to register before SnapStart takes a memory snapshot. Learn more about what priming is in this [blog post](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/optimizing-cold-start-performance-of-aws-lambda-using-advanced-priming-strategies-with-snapstart/){target="_blank"}.

Make sure to reference `TracingUtils` in your Lambda handler initialization code. This can be done by adding one of the following lines to your handler class:

=== "Constructor"

```java hl_lines="7"
import software.amazon.lambda.powertools.tracing.Tracing;
import software.amazon.lambda.powertools.tracing.TracingUtils;

public class MyFunctionHandler implements RequestHandler<APIGatewayProxyRequestEvent, APIGatewayProxyResponseEvent> {

public MyFunctionHandler() {
TracingUtils.prime(); // Ensure TracingUtils is loaded for SnapStart
}

@Override
@Tracing
public APIGatewayProxyResponseEvent handleRequest(APIGatewayProxyRequestEvent input, Context context) {
// ...
return something;
}
}
```

=== "Static Initializer"

```java hl_lines="7"
import software.amazon.lambda.powertools.tracing.Tracing;
import software.amazon.lambda.powertools.tracing.TracingUtils;

public class MyFunctionHandler implements RequestHandler<APIGatewayProxyRequestEvent, APIGatewayProxyResponseEvent> {

static {
TracingUtils.prime(); // Ensure TracingUtils is loaded for SnapStart
}

@Override
@Tracing
public APIGatewayProxyResponseEvent handleRequest(APIGatewayProxyRequestEvent input, Context context) {
// ...
return something;
}
}
```

!!! note "Important: Direct TracingUtils reference required"
Using only the `@Tracing` annotation is not sufficient to trigger SnapStart priming. You must have a direct reference to `TracingUtils` in your code (as shown in the examples above) to ensure the CRaC hooks are properly registered.

Avoid protected methods in a final class that doesnt extend anything other than Object. Change to private or package access.

Do not use protected methods in most final classes since they cannot be subclassed. This should only be allowed in final classes that extend other classes with protected methods (whose visibility cannot be reduced). Clarify your intent by using private or package access modifiers instead.
