Yeah, but Kotlin Native loses all the Java libraries. The more interesting thing would be Java native compilation coupled with Kotlin. So you'd write a Kotlin Java app and pass that through the Java native compiler introduced in Java 9. Unfortunately that's a beta feature right now, I think it only supports Linux x64, that's why I said Kotlin 2019, I assume that by then the Java native compiler will support all Java platforms.
I'm probably too conservative, but I'd rather use these kinds of things from the actual platform developers. I'm a bit more liberal with libraries, but in general I want the compilers/interpreters from the upstream source. Software has enough bugs as is :)
