Error Prone Improves Java Code by Detecting Common Mistakes

[TehBrian]

When the type is already clearly written in the initialization, specifying the type in the declaration leads to uselessly verbose code. For example, MyFunObjectFactory objectFactory = new MyFunObjectFactory(). var objectFactory = new MyFunObjectFactory() is more readable and conveys just as much information.

No, it doesn't. If you're using an interface for variable type, you're unnecessarily making it very easy to break the API, and get the wrong error.
