Cause it actually needed lambdas and things that go with it. Didn't need all the Scala-specific data structs like Array.

And the most important thing Java was always missing until recently, virtual threads, were lacking in Scala too.

Virtual threads is a JVM & stdlib feature, not a language feature.

(And I'd disagree that virtual threads were all that important compared to language features.)
