As an Android Dev: noone of us wants to do java projects anymore. If we had support for some recent versions maybe, but as it is, there's no going back. 0 of our recent or current projects still use java. Google is either moving/extending libs to natively integrate with kotlin (numerous -ktx libs) or they are kotlin-only (Compose) anyway. I don't really see the Jetbrains lock-in thing, because: Android Studio is free, you can use any other IDE with syntax highlighting and the terminal to run tests & to compile. If you want to blame someone for locking in android devs into Android Studio, it would be Google, because they build the previews into Android Studio afaik. But you would have the same criticism at Apple/XCode. Supporting one IDE is already tough I guess.
