This feels a bit like discussing the new fancy garden hoe as a farm hand as they are making the tractor.

Java is a conservative language, which means that it waits and sees which features work well for the tractor, and then retrofits them to the hoe.

Are these hoes somehow related to lemon stealing hoes?

Only if you build your tractors out of garden hoes ;)
