You could write a blog post/article to explain why you think this,

Sure. One of the reasons is that you have the choice. OO, structs,
ranges, functional. This makes me think about how to solve which
problem. In Java you get one concept, OO, and that's it. What do you do?
Write a class, what ever the task at hand may be.
Well,
structs => Packed Objects (IBM J9, being discussed for Java 9)
ranges => Iterator/Iterable/Streams (Java 8)
functional => Method handles/Lambda (Java 8)
