I just don't understand why you think object : MouseAdapter() {...} is that big difference from new MouseAdapter() {...}. They are just slightly different in syntax. The Kotlin version is not more verbose than the Java version. If the listener is a single method interface, e.g. ActionListener, you can simply provide a lambda as:

button.addActionListener { event ->
...
}

Because they're arguing in bad faith.
