Since the post is from 2003 and there is a lot of background context necessary to understand significance, e.g. Guy Steele's role in Java, this might make an interesting blog post if someone knowledgeable put in the effort to write one framing the historical issues such as Java being targeted toward C++ programmers and a gigabyte being an extravagant amount of RAM at the time these decisions were made 20 years ago.
If you wrote it up as a blog post and submitted it, somebody would just change the link to this one and accuse you of posting blog-spam.

(I have no idea what a good title for that link would be, but I found it to be incredibly interesting. If you're a moderator and can think of a better title, I would appreciate an edit).
