Spring is not Java. It's also one of the most complex projects out there.

Spring isn’t the language or standard libraries.
Ok, it's possible that my bilingual ahh is misunderstanding the comment. Maybe we can try to come to an understanding?

I read that comment as "Show me where [long classnames] are in the language, standard library or <relevant ecosystem project>."

Spring is one of the biggest java libraries and quite widely used. I think it fits rather nicely, even if the example itself is fairly old.

Yeah I just think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what the ecosystem is. Spring is used less than you think.
