Neither point is true today FWIW.

Neither point was ever true in the last ~10 years when it comes to gamedev (or where you want to use SDL) where Java was and continues to be a much weaker choice.

Java’s ecosystem is just vastly bigger. In many categories, Java has multiple open-source offerings vs .NET’s single, proprietary one that is often just a bad copy of one of the former libraries.
