I concur with Joe here. I have seen some code with many redundant generic type parameters.

Unfortunately the tools like findbugs, checkstyle and PMD that we'd expect to point out other oversights don't do a very good job in this regard.

When I see a Java type declared to have more than two type parameters my initial reaction is usually "this type isn't using the best decomposition of the problem space." -Joe
