Excuse me for not sharing your enthusiasm.
I do not see anything interesting or inspiring in either Java or C#. On
the contrary. All I see is an attempt to restrain and reduce 00 by
strong typing which looks like a technical consideration.
The only question is which of these two work horses is doing the job
better for your particular process. But neither is a thoroughbred. I
would look for inspiration (or lessons about 00) elsewhere.
