Sure, in Java applications where performance is critical it might be hard. Is this all Java applications? Is this even most Java applications? I'm not necessarily agreeing with the original point that you can rewrite any Java app in Python, because that's ridiculous as well. But your counterpoint that it can only happen "when a user-space could be written in it" is very poorly chosen.

Actually today I realized that my line of thought regarding having an OS written in Python was wrong, as that is exactly what MicroPython is. As it runs bare-metal, the runtime plays the role of an OS. Symbian also allowed for apps to be written in Python, shortly before being axed.
