Yeah I believe so as well. All languages having the same features would also be a downside. Just make a choice and stand by it. (Like Haskell, they are not pressured into doing things just because Java does so).

I do not mean this as a criticism of Haskell, but Haskell has a lot of GHC-specific language extensions:

I am not sure it qualifies as making a choice and standing by it.
