> > In fact, slightly question the need for a code template for this at all. Seems somewhat contrary to why this feature was added. > > I don't know why the feature was added but I suppose so because one day a dev wanted to type less and came up with abbreviations. All IDEs have those by now, for main methods too - multiple variants. I think it is a bad sign if bikeshedding starts. `main` is an established abbreviation, that works correctly now and in the future. Why should people need to relearn just because the language was changed to "make it easier for newbies"? The changed `main` here will not work on VMs < 21 and then newbies will ask again: why is NB generation broken code? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
