Yes, it was a bummer that Java didn't take up on the ideas of Cedar, Oberon linage, Modula-3, Eiffel,... even though some are quoted as its influences.
Still I am confident that it might be getting value types, before C++ reflection, networking, senders/receivers, or safety gets sorted out. Or even that we can finally write portable C++ code using C++20 modules.
