Nobody writes C# except for the sake of fitting into the .NET ecosystem. Java is the original dorky reference-oriented language with underlying bytecode, and after 20 years of runtime optimization it's still the best.

Newbies of every stripe are encouraged to think that language is the entry point for software development, but it's a teaching moment that most teachers fail. The language is not important.

The runtime is important.
