There are not so many language who can directly compile and optimize to machine code though.

I'm not sure if java or C# can easily jit to have something that is close to machine code. Anyway having machine code directly (and no need for VM) is useful if you want to reduce the overhead and fully exploit your hardware.

Surely it's not for students or for casual programmers, but it has a use.
