I believe the point they were making is you can have millions of virtual threads on the JVM no problem. Your information on the JVM is outdated.

Good, thanks for the grounding. I'll have to reevaluate at one point then.

As I just posted in another comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48384622), I'd probably drop Erlang/Elixir due to difficulties of employment and contracting -- if the more popular languages get those STM / share-nothing runtimes.
