If you believe that's the reason for the JVM (and that it's a "VM" in the traditional sense), you are greatly mistaken. It's like saying C is no longer needed because there is only Arm and x86..

The JVM is a runtime, just like what Go has. It allows for the best observability of any platform (you can literally connect to a prod instance and check e.g. the object allocations) and has stellar performance and stability.
