Minstrone - you are off your rocker.
Re default implementations - that's a good thing. Of course they should never have created such an abomination as interfaces to begin with and just given us proper multiple inheritance. But apparently it was for our own good (and nothing at all to do with it being a PITA to implement in the JVM).
I believe that it was introduced so that they could bolt on the new Streams API to the existing collections.Comment

It's there so that they can add methods to existing interfaces without breaking exisiting implementations that don't implement the new methods.

No. I think anonymous functions are a good idea in concept, but will be widely misused and will help coders produce even more unreadable bloated code. If you are writing a function and halfway through think you need an anonymous function ask yourself if your function is already doing to much.

It doesn't. It has to do with features of modern languages that I don't like.
