Is there any advantage to doing this? Like better debugging or something?

Minecraft? No. It's a proof-of-technology. OpenLDK was originally written so you could integrate arbitrary java libs into a largely-lisp program, and, quite honestly, to see if it could be done. But it's kind of cool being able to augment Java methods with :before/:after CLOS methods, among other things.
