You hit most points. Lets add one of my personal biggest gripes:

- Java reperesents a way of thinking where all languages issues are fixed in the IDE. A thinking which enables the language itself to grow in all the wrong directions.

Its not so much that that is always a bad thing. But if the usability of a language is so dependend upon and designed for an IDE, that IDE really should be part of the language design.
