If I'm not mistaken, Java does not allow calls to static methods via

Sorry, I retract this. Someone just showed me an example of it.
But it still seems like a bad practice.
So why? as i stated before the only difference between static and
non-static member functions is that non-static members *may* change
the state of an instance while static members definetly won't
From a callers point of view it is not even important to know
that one is calling a static member when invoking the member
function over an object instance, so why shouldn't it be callable
like that?
