"Wildcard arguments for generics. If I have Foobar<int> and Foobar<String>, it's nice to be able to put them in a collection/array typed as Foobar<?>. The '? extends X' and '? super X' syntax might be a bit much, though."

C# has covariance and contravariance, no need for that.
That Java sintax is horrible, I can't even understand it without reading the docs every time, even C++ sintax for templates I can get.
It must be because of type erasure, Java doesn't really have Generics per se, it f***s on runtime with method binding, this is how we get the polymorphism, and without it, there's no true OO with Generics, Shame! (luckily I don't use Java everytime).
