I'm honestly happy with java lang's stewardship over the past decade, this particular JEP notwithstanding (it's fine, but the good parts come later.) They're conservative in adopting new features whereas I see every other language bolting on everything under the sun with reckless abandon. I prefer the "let's see what shakes out" and adopt "the good parts" which seems to be Java's approach. Sugar like "var" from kotlin, project loom event loop like nodes, etc.
