I’m going to go with they hadn’t come up with it yet. Modern M, at least at Epic, goes through a few levels of transpilation/compilation before ending up running in Java (I think that’s what Cache is now). New code isn’t really much worse than any other codebase IMO, but some of the old code there is crazy.

Some companies use their own higher-level layer on top of M. For example, FIS (banking software) uses Profile Scripting language which compiles to M which compiles to native machine code. Cache compiles to custom bytecode unrelated to Java or the Java Virtual Machine.
