I think it makes total sense to have the language evolving on a scheduled basis rather than stagnate.
If your company is only discussing moving to JDK9 now, what difference does it make that JDK10 is out? If you are using the free version, there is no real support. If you are a paying customer, Oracle will support you to the end of time while wringing every last cent out of your company.
What difference does it make if the language keeps evolving? Do you expect the entire world to revolve around you and your company?
