There is an absolute mountain of Java at Google. Pretty sure it's the most used language by LOC.

As if LoC was a usable metric when it comes to a language as verbose as java.

Plus all the boilerplate coming not from the language but the OOP design patterns.

No one said it was a usable metric for anything other than the fact that a lot of Java is written at Google.
