JVM history is full of pragmatic guest languages.

Yes, and it's richer for it. Java is definitely not the last word in language design!

Indeed, it just has the same role on the JVM as C on UNIX, JS on the browser,....

Just like those, it will slowly adopt whatever is more appealing from the guests and then carry on its merry way, while the other slowly lose their relevance while newcomers try yet again to challenge the place of the host language on the platform.
