And Java devs on a Scala codebase is effectively the norm once your project enters BAU/maintenance phase.

One of Scala’s major issues is that it’s too easy to write Scava IMO

its a feature not a bug

The problem is that it is easy to write code that is not easy to read/understand afterwards. Especially if the code has a lot of operator soup and implicits.

Do people still do that? I thought that the whole "you can just google goobedygook" meme died already! ZIO for this reason has sane normal proper names for things for example.
