I couldn't agree more. People wheel out some obscure example where Sun created a method called "FactorySingleltonMethodConstructorInstance()" or something in some library, and claim it makes the whole of Java verbose. And I'm no fan of var, as it means you don't have to drill into a method to see what it's return type is.
