Idk, Oracle RDBMS is from 1979, and Java is quite the poster child for legendary backwards compat.

I'll sort of give you Oracle RDBMS. It's also their main product and cash cow.

Java isn't Oracle's though. It was created by Sun (released in 1996) and has had a community driven process for language changes since 1998 (jcp.org). Oracle only bought it and openJDK is a thing.
