But the fact that it is an internal implementation detail does not prohibit technical minded people to be interested in them. Most developers I have met were interested in such things. Most men have e.g. at least some knowledge about the inner workings of their car, even if that are internal implementation details. In any case I think it would be worth a try, if nothing comes of it, nothing is lost...

Of course. It's not a user facing feature. It's an internal implementation detail of JVM languages. Even if you play with `MethodHandles`, you will never deal directly with invoke dynamic.
