This is indeed one possible approach that the group can choose. However
I don't have the feeling that arithmetic operations on parameterized
type like C++ template is on Oracle's radar for any time soon, but we
can ask if peoples wish. It is not necessarily a lack of Java Generic
maturity. It is just because the universe of possibilities is infinite,
and language designers focus on a syntax covering maybe 85% of the
needs, not 100%.
