Generic erasure is a giant pain in the rear. C# doesn't do this. You don't actually keep any information about generics in the bytecode, however some of the metadata is present. BUT IT COULD BE FULL OF LIES.
There's also a huge amount of syntactic sugar in later java versions - take for example switch expressions.
