This does not solve the problem though. Source compatibility would still be broken as one would still need to add casts everywhere, or am I misinterpreting something? > he concern about change in behaviour of indexOf(null) is completely valid, > although indexOf(null) is kind of exotic scenario. See [this](https://github.com/search?q=%22indexOf%28null%29%22+language%3AJava+&type=code) and [that](https://github.com/search?q=%22lastIndexOf%28null%29%22+language%3AJava+&type=code) query. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/18639#issuecomment-2046118678
