String Literals have been superseded by Text Blocks though, so it’s only “got pulled” as a technicality, Text Blocks are stable parts of the language now forever. I believe something similar will happen with string templates. Also, Java has gotten an insane number of new, significant features in the last couple of years — loom, algebraic data types, pattern matching, ZGC.. I don’t want to disrespect Python, but I really don’t think they have done anything to this degree.
