> [...] there are few circles where Java, or at least the JVM, isn't used
I was making the very opposite point. I think Java programmers tend to underestimate the circles where it is not used. In particular, it seems that those who would not describe themselves as professional programmers but who nevertheless need to program tend to not use Java. And it's not all Python/Perl/Basic/Tcl/Bash; C++ (and C) are also widely used.
