That makes a while since I’ve done Android, but I’m sure that this variable should be a property and be set as part of the lifecycle. And while Android (and any big project) is full of boilerplate, each line is subtly different or it would have already been abstracted in some base class. And even then, the code completion is already so good in Android Studio that you would have to be a complete junior (in this case, you wouldn’t know that the AI suggestion is good) to complain that writing code is slow. Most time spent is designing code, fixing subtle bugs, and refactoring to clean up the code.
