They were abandoned long before “the functional paradigm”. They started being a problem when the Java community decided interactions should go through interfaces over concrete types, and it only got worse with genetics then functional streams.

Not sure about that. Reinhold said so explicitly during a conference when they launched Java 8. I don’t see interfaces over concrete types as an issue here.
