Heuuu?
Scala Native:

Kotlin Native:

C# Native:

... very few language that are not going native these days.
Especially with LLVM.
I think he meant System (!= Native). E.g. none of the languages
listed above have inline assembly, which is crucial if e.g. your
doing kernel level programming or low-level optimizations. Also,
(AFAIK) none of these language allow you to easily create threads
outside of their language runtime, which is critical for e.g.
writing real-time audio DAW plugins (see
https://www.auburnsounds.com/blog/index.html). Also unlike D, the
GCs of each respective language is implemented in a different
language (C++, IIRC).
