我想知道:为什么重写方法不能具有比重写方法更严格的访问修饰符？

例如:

class Animal{
    public void eat(){
        System.out.println("Generic Animal Eating Generically");
    }
}

class Horse extends Animal{
    public void eat(){
        System.out.println("Horse eating hay, oats, and horse treats");
    }
}

在Horse类中,为什么我不能像这样编写代码:

private void eat(){
    System.out.println("Horse eating hay, oats, and horse treats");
}

要么

protected void eat(){
    System.out.println("Horse eating hay, oats, and horse treats");
}
