It did to a degree but still left a sizeable amount of use cases as they were ill suited for Java. I feel like this is repeatedly happened since where each new or newly hyper language has peeled off parts of C++'s use cases but never gone for the core. I feel like Rust is the first that can do it and significantly improve on it. While it does lack specialization and some template tricks, it has memory safety, core/alloc/std, first and third party libraries focusing on `Result` rather than exceptions, etc. This is much better suited for kernel, embedded, and framework development while also being able to scale up into the use cases that went to Java and other languages previously.
