Pretty sure everything in the jvm has to be tied to a class structure by definition.

Yes, and? Classes are not inherently bad, hence saying that JVM should not be invested in because its bytecode requires classes is nonsense.

re: inline lambdas, they have to be _tied_ to a class, and defined as methods, indeed. But they no longer have to be standalone classes themselves since JDK8
