I give up. You're like a little kid. Codesize or verbosity doesn't matter. Quality is a keyword and it resulting in sustainable pace. If you doesn't understand this, nobody can help you. Your arguments are like as "Why I should use TDD, if I can write code directly".

You call me a kid because you claim using a single line syntactic feature of a language isn't maintainable. It's like claiming for loops are unmaintainable and that we should wrap them inside methods.

It's not people hating Java: it's you afraid of looking at other tools.
