I don&#x27;t disagree that FP doesn&#x27;t feel <i>complete</i> in Java yet. But that doesn&#x27;t mean I&#x27;m not totally willing to start playing with what I&#x27;ve got!<p>The biggest worry I have right now is the story on debugging code with Optional bastardized FP. I know I&#x27;m going to learn some lessons soon enough, lol.
