Why? I bet you never even wrote custom VM for your lang/architecture.
There are like dozen of implementations for JVM alone: sun, Oracle, gnu, IBM etc etc

Pretty sure everything in the jvm has to be tied to a class structure by definition.
Because the idea of classes is baked into JVM. So when writing inline code, with groovy, scala, kotlin, whatever else, the compiler has to basically insert fake classes into the jvm.
This may seem trivial, but because its fundamentally "hacky" its not something that is ever going to be as easy to work with and expand.
