Generics should have been in Java (and Go) from the beginning.

Those surely are not the proof that Java adds "everybody's favorite feature". I think the parent means the newest Oracle projects (Valhalla, modules, value types, streams, and so on).

(Technically, I think Java modules have been floating around in weird, likely broken suggestions since before Oracle bought Sun. As far as I could ever see, the primary design constraint was always, "NOT OSGi!")
