Yeah but I don't know if DI (ab)usage is really idiomatic Java. I've written lots of Java over the years and only rarely used DI frameworks. Libraries never use them. When I did use them they've been fairly restrained and most of the code you wouldn't notice it. It might be idiomatic if all you do is write web servers.

Alright, that's fair! I only ever wrote web apps in Java, other than very small scripts and libraries. You're right.
