If they were going to switch from the legacy language for /main code (i.e. from Java to Kotlin), why didn't they also switch from the legacy language for /test code too (i.e. from Apache Groovy to Kotlin) instead of dismissing it with "Spek isn't as good as Spock". And if they use Gradle, why not switch from Groovy to Kotlin for build scripts also.
