The JDK is the only source allowed to modify java.lang.String, so they'd likely add static methods to that directly like String.join() and the others. The plural name thing was more of an issue with an interface Thing and utility class Things. As of Java 8, there's typically no need to have a Things class because the Thing interface can have static methods on it. For example, see all the static methods added to Comparator that would have typically gone into a class named Comparators (like Collector/Collectors).
