      SourcePosition.column() returns a truly mysterious value
      that needs clarification. It is not the column number at
      which the declaration starts, but rather the column number
      at which the identifier appears.

      So for:
      ____public final String result, column() returns 23.

      In general, modifiers and return values are ignored.
      This implementation seems strange, so it needs a lengthier
      explanation.
