Is there a need for kebab-case in Java?
The hyphen is not valid in Java identifiers; indeed many other languages
don't allow them either.
I'm not sure that it's worth adding snake_case either.
AFAICT it's trivial: string.replaceAll(" ", "_")
(similarly for kebab-case)
Or is it really more complicated than that?
Seems to me that the cost outweighs the benefits in these cases.
