I'm not knocking indie development, the scene is very very vibrant. But indies don't typically push the hardware to its limits the same way.

And Java was a perfectly good choice of language for Notch for the same reasons.

I don't play Minecraft so I guess I'm outta touch. I knew about Bedrock and I've heard kids call Java the "old one". I didn't realise there's still an active community. Thanks for the correction :)
