I would consider that too but ... Something goes wrong with this :

On OS in ASM and Java only (99% Java) ... But Java is not categorized as a
systems programming language.
Why not? What about this?

Someone else said that any language with pointers is a systems
programming language. So that makes C# a systems programming language or
for that matter Pascal.
For me, if you can write the majority of an OS in a specific language,
then you can use it for systems programming.
