java-Heatbugs

A question about the Heatbug class:

in the objC version of the model, Heatbug subclasses SwarmObject and is created in the Zone of the creator.

in the java version, Heatbug subclasses nothing and is thus a plain java object, which knows nothing of zones. (Even though SwarmObject seems to be part of the swarm-java api.)

Why this choice, and what are the ramifications? Are Zones no longer really necessary, given java garbage collection? I notice that (Batch-,Observer-,Model-)Swarms still are created in Zones ...
