Some developers work on large code bases where adding lambdas or fresh new syntax features isn't really seen as an advantage for the rest of the teams, most often explicitly restricted.

I can only thank those who wrote such obfuscated code in previous years, that eventually forced everyone else afterwards to write code as simple and clear as reasonably possible. That's the reason why I've asked for the simplified code, Might as well save the time for other developers on similar situation.



No, the simplified code is the Java 8 code. You are just clinging to the archaic syntax that you are used to.

Of course you can choose to shoot yourself in the foot and just stick with Java 6, but don't try to force others to make the same mistake.


> don't try to force others to make the same mistake

Seems you prefer to put everyone on the same bag and speak for them too.
