This is a kind of wishy washy liberal attitude that is found all over. An attempt to say both sides of an argument have a point. Which is always true, otherwise there wouldn't be an argument. The part I take umbrage at is that it implies both sides have an equally valid argument. That is rarely true. Here JIT has been claiming superiority for twenty years. It has clearly failed. It's slower to start, slower to run, and uses more memory. That will very probably never change. It still has some advantages in some areas and some niches, but AOT has won. The war, if you really must use that term, is over. We see this in the resurgence of interest in C++ and in the move in mobile ecosystems to AOT.
