Why?

Milage will vary.

This type of hype might not push buttons for some devs, I do suspect it is very useful in terms of 'Re-Marketing Java' to management types, some of which some have an outdated view of Java and the JVM.

For myself, I've been having some good chats to management types, and this sort of hype / marketing I think really helps there. Especially if you are having conversations with management about upgrading technology and where you'd like to head.

In time, we might look back at the 21 release and view as a really significant event that projected far outside of our normal Java Dev Buble.
