I guess theoretically based on the metaphor, yes, but for all of Java’s faults, it never asked me to swallow the poison pill that is significant white space.
Which is to give immediate lie to the idea that there can be only one, Highlander style.
Also, maybe things have changed but I find it hard to believe that Python’s performance profile is strictly competitive (though I don’t love Java’s memory outlay either). And I’ve never heard or seen a Java development setup guide start with “first install a Java version manager” either.
It should go without saying that YMMV, but this site seems to get more cantankerous by the day.
