Description
We tried our best to have tail-recursive methods in our code. However, if the method is neither private nor final, the compiler won't consider it as this, and won't optimize it. This may lead to dreaded java.lang.StackOverflowError
To make sure the compiler is optimizing it, we should @tailrec all these calls
