I think it's fortunate that Java developers aren't going to have to 
absorb everything about closures and lambda expressions in one go.  The 
current implementation allows folks to digest the new lambda expressions 
in a smaller portion size.

But yes I'd like to understand better the theory behind it too. 
Especially as Brian Goetz (and probably others) seems to want to drive 
parallelism into Java by using SAM literals.  More information is always 
good, imo.
