> sometimes you really want to skip bounds checking in a cross platform way
What is a use case where this is crucial? Where the difference is not just to win a benchmark pissing contest, but where the delta is so large that it is a factor of the JVM being a valid platform or not, and where the JVM would still be the best overall solution?
Put differently: if you need extreme performance and full low-level control, what is a scenario where you still choose the JVM over eg Rust, and where bounds-checking elimination would be the deciding factor?
