Compile-time checking wherever it is net time savings to the developer and does not hinder runtime performance is a very good thing. In the case of generics, I believe they're a big time saver overall.

Generics, while weak compared to C++ container polymorphism, are a vast improvement to Java. Methods can return specific types without casts. Earlier Java code is littered
with hard-to-read and error-prone casting.
