I am not sure about well behind. There are parts of .NET which
MS has patents on.

I think Mono does a pretty good job with those parts which are

Well so does the JVM. Off the top of my head I can think of
Clojure, Scala, Groovy, Kotlin, Ruby, Javascript, Python, and there
are many more.  Some of which appeared well before .NET/CLR 1.0.
