I'm confused, I don't see any syntax in this link. Wrong link?

If you use Scala you usually need none of them. Problem solved.

Currently no, soon yes.

Currently no classloader is needed to run Scala code.

However, in order to solve binary compatibility once and for all, Scala 3 (aka Dotty) adds an extra bytecode layer on top of Java bytecode.

Wrong parent? (_and_ wrong content, btw)
