True: this compiles and the test passes today on JDK 27-jep401ea3:

  record Person(String name, Age age, Iban iban) {}

  // {"name": "SuperMario", "age": null, "iban": null}
  Person result = mapper.readValue(json, Person.class);

  assertThat(result.age()).isNull();   // passes — value class field, null
  assertThat(result.iban()).isNull();  // passes — value class field, null

  Jackson bypasses the constructor for null JSON tokens (getNullValue() short-circuits), so the
  validation in new Age(...) never runs. Both Age and Iban are value classes; both fields are null.

What do you think? Of course, there are limitations as Person cannot be flattened anymore but I guess Valhalla will ship more JEPs later?
