New You're right...
I was thinking of the parameter passing aspect of PL/SQL (from 7+), not the constructor aspect they added in later on.

You're quite correct also, that I'm thinking of overload rather than polymorphism. I had also switched from Oracle to Java (because I still don't think of PL/SQL as OO language).

I'm not sure that a static factory method would be required in this case for Java, if the constructor can be overloaded to default the values.

New Not required in Java.
The default constructor in Java sets no values at all, in fact.
