Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-9863:
-------------------------------------

Isn't it the same experience with any new programming language? There always 
seems to be an idiom that does the same thing in a nicer way. The problem with 
groovy is that it's really flexible (maybe too much)... I like it but I've 
grown used to it. Many people prefer to write gradle build files in Kotlin. I 
personally think these are less clear and more verbose than the equivalent 
groovy code. And I don't know Kotlin that well so to me it's more convenient to 
write groovy.

> run spotless across groovy (e.g. gradle) code too

> We should run spotless to format the groovy, too so that there is a 
> consistent style and nobody needs to think about how the formatting should be.
> Especially considering how crazy the language is, it is even more important 
> to do this than with the java!
