I would say the only valid request here is to mention that Java has the
@override flag which can be used to prevent hijacking, but is not the default.

I think you misunderstood the point of this article.  The point is to prevent
hijacking the *default* must be to prevent hijacking.  Having annotations and
modifiers that allow you to prevent hijacking is not good enough.

I think you also misunderstood the scope in the article of Java's shortcomings.
 I think the author only singles out one aspect of Java, it's overload
resolution for inherited methods.  Nothing else applies to Java.
