But if he had never been in the Java mindset it wouldn't be obvious to him that there is nothing to be gained by compiling your own java code. Platform independence, bytecode etc means that a jar file of the stable build is the optimum solution. That is so obvious to us we forget that its a revolution for someone new to java. So he probably went down some compile from source to optimise for your architecture route that made perfect sense to him, but led him onto a iceberg (the captain of the titanic *knew* that a ship could turn in time because that is what all his previous experience on smaller ships led him to believe)
