But you still need jre/jdk to serve HDFS ;) Also, there are tons of other missing products like ElasticSearch, Kafka, Spark...

Sure, but fight the battles you can win. The database I use wasn't written in C. That doesn't mean I have to write applications in C.

Yeah, I don't doubt that there are many more Java libs. But for most uses cases today there are Golang libs as well. There's a Kafka client by Confluent, Elasticsearch client etc.
