This is just begging the question. Java needs an application loader anyway which does heavy lifting before calling main. Your rationale about main being too complex for beginners seems unbelievable. In fact, the static main is very confusing for beginners, I doubt a constructor would be more so. You say a “constructor should not be responsible for the object’s behaviour”. This sounds interesting but I’m not sure I’d agree. Why doesn’t it? What prevents this?
