Why can't you create static methods in an abstract class?

abstract class foo {
    abstract void bar(); // <-- Pig 
    abstract static void bar2(); //<-- No
}

Why can't you define a static method for an abstract class like above?

The rule of 'abstract' is no implementation of the method.

The abstract class itself cannot be objectified, so implementation is not necessary.

In the static method, a function can be called without the class being objectified, but grammatically, an error is bound to occur.
