Who is realistically going to innovate the boilerplate out of Java if they're stuck using it at work?

That, or any job where you're not permitted to make the sweeping changes required to resolve boilerplate. Many of my jobs had such restrictions.

So the solution to the problems that Copilot tries to solve is "migrate your workplace to Clojure"? Ordinary devs can't do that.

Lombok and most intellij features make java boilerplate pretty obselete.
