That’s Android Studio’s default workflow designed around the expectation that it's going to be used for building Android apps in a particular style, and to optimize for what is usually appropriate for that, which is very much not “Hello, world!” optimized.
As much as Java is a needlessly verbose language, the problem you are looking at is an
particular IDE / build system / project type combination issue, not a Java issue.
