Gone Full Unikernel

There is nothing stopping people from creating a unikernel for a dynamic language that also includes the development tools.

A Lisp Machine on Xen would be one model.

I feel like Erlang-based unikernels are an extremely compelling alternative to traditional UNIX deployments. Immutable systems with safe hot swap and excellent debugging tools like `observer` and `debugger`.

Erlang on Xen is already that way. You can use the full Erlang profiling/tracing/debugging/observing toolkit on an EoX node.
