"Programs written in F* can be translated to OCaml, F#, and C for execution. ... The latest version of F* is written entirely in a common subset of F* and F#, and bootstraps in both OCaml and F#."[1]
I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make with that quote. The languages that F* can be compiled to and the ones it’s written in aren’t relevant to what was being discussed.
Why is that relevant though? You could also write a version of (for example) Prolog or Forth or Lisp using OCaml that would compile to OCaml for execution. Doesn't mean any of those are OCaml. Coq isn't OCaml. Haxe isn't OCaml. The fact that F* is written in, uses a subset of the syntax of and can be compiled to F# (or OCaml) is an implementation detail, the language and the purpose of the language aren't to be OCaml/F#.
