I've always found it a bit perplexing that java.lang was never chosen

I think John Rose or another member of the EG should have an answer to
this.

java.lang => Java the language (not the platform)
Exotic identifiers and MethodHandle.invoke calling rules in Java (the
language)
are not part of the JSR292 spec.
JSR 292 => method handle API for any (dynamic?) language
So why java.dyn API should be a 'part' of java.lang ?
