  Read my other reply to you on the subject! The API might be a small syntactic change, but the concepts and the implementation behind those for noobs are not. They learn OOP and constructors and then you tell them - they suck, use factories via static methods.

    Yes, but that's a fault in Java the language. Keeping Java bad doesn't solve that problem.

      I agree. A little native support for wide-spread best practices would only be a good thing for Java.
