But there is a significant difference between the JVM bytecode and

The JVM bytecode is a pure stackbased one while the Dalvik one uses
registers.
Yep.
I was confused by the explicit mentioning of 8 vs 16 bit, since I
didn't see how it mattered if you only meant stack-based vs register
based.
That is why I am astonished that converting Java-Bytecode to Dalvik
code should be an easy task.
JIT compilers for Java byte code have existed for over a decade now.
They also map the Java stack machine to register-based architectures.
