In the following code, the qualified name C.y is illegal,
because C names a type, and y names a non-static member of
that type. Javac accepts this code inside an instance
method of C, which implies it is using the presence of
"this" as a reason for allowing the access.

class C {
    int y = 5;

    void f () {
        System.out.println(C.y); // looks like javac is treating as "this.y"
    }
}
