Wrong documentation. You want this comment:
/**
* Checks that {@code fromIndex} and {@code toIndex} are in
* the range and throws an appropriate exception, if they aren't.
*/
What did you think you were demonstrating?

Except that the implementation in question isn't flawed, so it's not possible.
Furthermore your "logic" doesn't demonstrate your conclusion anyway.

There is no such file in the Java API. And the usual terminology is t"class",
since the fact that the bytecode is read from a file doesn't signify.

Not one of the claims, "hunches" or conclusions you've presented here have
been correct, backed up by facts, or even well supported. Of which hunches
do you speak?
