> don't need as much virtual memory protection because that's handled by the language. This is true at compile time. But what does it do for you at runtime when bad actors will be trying to break any and all assumptions? The guarantees in the kernel need to be vigilant against attackers, so while the kernel itself might be simpler, the boundary with processes still needs a lot of constraints at runtime.
