I know FFI in Java is certainly possible and I’ve seen it at least a few times personally; is it that much harder than in Python or just less common due to the need?

Python doesn’t compile to machine instructions either and there’s nothing that prevents GPU access from Java. In fact I’d bet in many cases pure Java beats Python + C library though it obviously depends on how much has to be written in pure python.
