In order to implement all the Scala language magic the generated byte code is sometimes far away from what the equivalent Java code byte code would look like. This isn't a problem for most people but it is an issue for anyone who uses stuff like byte code instrumentation - take a look at this issue for example: https://github.com/puniverse/quasar/issues/45 It's not a criticism of Scala (the language is just a LOT richer so has to cater for more sophistication). But the difference matters to me which is why I prefer Kotlin over Scala and I'm prepared to miss out on some of that sweet Scala magic.
In Google scored points with its community by supporting Kotlin
