Actually, it is a big disadvantage, except for one thing: they 
can piggyback on the ecosystem and cut down the costs of 
developing a solid runtime system.

In that Kotlin has the same advantage of being able to gradually 
take over for Java, which is comparable to how C++ could 
gradually take over for C.
