They worked hard for a AOT framework, and suddenly google offers you a JIT with all its drawbacks for a high performance development....

Actually, it's has both AOT and JIT. You can 'pre-compile' your app/code into a 'pre-compiled snapshot'.

Thanks for the info. I went through their FAQ: How does Flutter run my code on Android? they say JIT there while in IOS says AOT.

A JIT would be illegal on iOS (self modifying code) if they allow native code JIT's on Android this is a hack waiting to happen...
