To distill your contribution to its essence:

Parent: what's wrong with the JVM as a multithreaded-JIT?

You: Java is similar to Javascript. Javascript was terribly designed in the 90's. Therefore Java sucks . QED.

You should try your hand at politics! Don't answer the question (Java), instead, segue into the more comfortable topic/what you want to talk about (Javascript)

Um, jerf gave a reason why Java's history affects it here and noted how it's similar to Javascript in that regard on the side; not the other way around. The JS comparison was not part of their argument.

But that has nothing to do with the question he is responding to; regarding Java's suitability as a multithreaded JIT
