I'm not sure what any of this has to do with the verbiage about "scripting languages," but I'd be much more interested in reading about Felix if it didn't involve so many attempts to redefine colloquially-understood terms in non-standard ways.

(Yes, most languages compile to bytecode, but people generally use the colloquial term "compiled language" to refer to a language whose implementations usually compile to machine code. JIT compilers for dynamic languages are quite a different thing because they generally only compile type-specialized fragments of code; such machine code has guards that fall back to the general-purpose interpreter if the expected preconditions do not hold.)
