DalvikVM probably can still run a lot of Android apps/power Android development. ART probably requires OS features that aren't implemented yet to do the JIT safely. I'm sure this is the first step to enable parallel development so that people can start developing Android apps on Fuschia while the OS team works on support to get ART running.

The context is replacing the Linux part of Android with Fuschia or at least letting Fuschia share with Android's userspace SW ecosystem even if Android continues to use Linux.

Dalvik is gone, it is all ART now, the name stayed for compatibility purposes.

> binary: "system/apex/com.android.art.debug/bin/dalvikvm64",

==> com.android.art.debug

So this is ART actually?
