The article has valid points that are specifically not about C++: - Javascript interpreters JIT at runtime because they don't know which paths are hot ahead of time - If you have a compiler, you don't need an interpreter And a bunch of other points that are also valid for non-C++ compilers. So, I think the title is accurate as is.
