I did, but a few of them are more opinions rather than "Cons" IMO.

>> Primatives don't inherit from Object

This is part of a design principle, it doesn't mean bad or good - it just means that you have to think differently in your approach towards application design. That's the way C# is where things are either directly or indirectly derived from System.Object. Let's not forget that C# is Microsoft's version of Java - Java was out before C# was. The reason for the difference is that they had their own opinions on the way the library was to be designed.

Neither a bad or a good thing; subjective.

Also C# is more community driven while Java is more of a closed circuit of development but they still do listen to people. The reason I put that is because you can cast types all day but type differentiating is different from objects in general is the way they are stored in memory and handled.
