> no-unsigned-integers [...] still bothers me

I like the lack of unsigned integers in Java. It simplifies the language while only removing a tiny bit of functionality. You can emulate almost all unsigned math using signed operations, whether you use a wider bit width or even the same bit width. The only really tricky operations are unsigned division and unsigned parseInt()/toString(), which Java 8 added to smooth things over.

The reason for using unsigned is not that some operations need it, it is so to declare a variable that can't be negative. If you don't have that, then you must check for a negative number in every single interface.
