If you want to make something that starts instantly you can't use electron or java.

This technical requirement is only on the spec sheet created by HN goers. Nobody else cares. Don't take tech specs from your competitors, but do pay attention. The user is always enchanted by a good experience, and they will never even perceive what's underneath. You'd need a competitor to get in their ear about how it's using Electron. Everyone has a motive here, don't get it twisted.
