For me it's the opposite: If I had to write the code that I usually use lambdas for in any other way then _that_ would be very difficult to write and to debug.

Especially when writing JavaFX code which is full of callbacks and event handlers I really don't see any other (useful) option.

Can lambdas be misused? Of course they can - but so can every other code construct.
