Why use Java when you can use Rust? In all seriousness, Rust is a joy to work with for these kind of tools which typically don't have complex lifetimes or ownership semantics.
On top of that you get better performance and probably smaller binaries. But I would pick Rust over Java for CLI tools just on the strengths of the language itself.
