Yeah, there's a lot in the book that would be nicer with newer Java features. At the same time, I'm mostly trying to use Java as a pseudocode that can be read by anyone familiar with Java/C++/C#/TypeScript/etc., so I try to confine the book to using a subset of Java features that are shared by most object-oriented statically typed languages.
So, at least until I do a second edition of the book (which I currently have plans to ever do!), it will stay on the set of Java features it already uses.
(As an aside: We recently added pattern matching, switch expressions, and destructuring to Dart. I've migrated some hobby languages written in Dart to use them and they really are wonderful for that kind of code.)
