To the extent that their object and memory models match the JVM's, you might say they were. To the extent that they don't, their JVM implementations wind up with warts and inconsistencies.

(But this is pedantry, you clearly know what I meant.)

No, I did not know what you meant. There is a difference between guessing and knowing.
