Thanks for the link, I'll read it. But Java is today's programming lingua-franca; practically anyone can read Java code, and adding closures would make it less readable for less skilled programmers.

Closures will probably make you more productive for the initial release, but take its toll at maintenance time. We should be after lowering maintenance costs, not decreasing time-to-market.
