It's interesting you think JVM support is just marketing.
For millions of developers around the globe, JVM support is a feature, and one they really can't do without.
Dart is a liability to them because unproven, and its future is equally uncertain given Google's track record.

I think maybe Dart is a liability from a marketing point of view because I saw many negative comments on HN which had more more to do with Dart's popularity than its technical merits. I was not talking about the JVM.
