Non-Nullable type syntax

[Kye]

Hi,

This might be a ridiculous suggestion but why don't Java add a bang in the type declaration to indicate non-nullable and leave the current meaning nullable.

Like GraphQL schemas, and opposite to the Kotlin question mark.

Obviously this wouldn't break anything existing and would allow for the same benefits the aforementioned languages have. Then everything could unify to this language construct, no need for the not universally used @Nullable nor Optional.

Kind regards,

Kye
