Spring annotations, maybe?

God I hate them. With annotations Java pulls off the rather unique trick of being both verbose and magical at the same time.

tbf, annotations aren't the blame. It's Spring's runtime magic with close to zero friendly figure-out-ability.

That and just over "abstracted" code that honestly feels like a strawman that someone made to argue against abstractions. :(
