statics methods also gets inherited ... so when we call method from subclass that is present in super class ... we call it by <name of superclass>. method ()

"using the class name where its definition is given" is more restrictive, wouldn't that mean that you couldn't call a static method of a superclass from a subclass?

what I'm saying is that you can call <name of subclass>.method() which doesn't quite align with the proposed amendment, so more careful wording is needed
