Totally agree about the "removing a misbehaving" feature part.
The frustration I was trying to express is more related to "perfect being the enemy of good". JEP-430 was introduced 3 years ago. By that point C# has already had string interpolation in place for 6 years and the C# solution achieves 90% of what JEP-430 set out to do. Java users could have benefited from 90% of that feature for 9 years by now.
It sounds a bit dramatic when we are talking about string interpolation, I realize that.
