I don't think private methods are inherently final
in the same sense that the final keyword works for
non-private methods.

private methods can be overshadowed. So it would be
an illusion to make a method init() private and then
expect that nobody can define init() as well in a
subclass.

But since private methods are compiled into a static
method invocation instruction, there is no problem
with this overshadowing.

A private method can even be overshadowed with a
public method, which is compiled into a dynamic
method invocation instruction.
