It is not.  Machine code is compiled already; script code is not.  So the 
time to interpret script code or to compile script code to machine code has 
to be taken into account.

One must start from the assumption that the developers of script engines 
know what they are doing, without assuming any optimizations on their part.

Now *that* is a non sequitur.  And you want to cite evidence.
