I care about security and Java code is unreadable, extremely verbose, extremely bloated. I don't see a single situation where Java is a more appropriate language than something else.

So, you are stating that Java language is not applicable to any situation.

Here is one: there is a database written in Java and you need to implement more features. There is 10000000 lines of code in the companies source and new code should be the same. I can go on and on.
