Vitalik Buterin gave a presentation about Ethereum to Hyperledger April 28 2016 and had this slide:

Buterin clarified the third point as the developer centralization observed in Bitcoin, where a single implementation is deemed the protocol.

There was no time in the presentation available to discuss the evaluation against existing virtual machines.

Vitalik Buterin gave a presentation about Ethereum to Hyperledger April 28 2016 and had this slide:

EVM Requirements

● Small code size (so that very many contracts from many users can be stored by one node)

● VM security designed around running untrusted code from arbitrary parties

● Multiple implementations (for cross-checking, and to mitigate developer centralization in the public chain)

● Perfect determinism (for consensus)

● Infinite loop resistance

• This itself must be accomplished perfectly deterministically; timeouts are a no-go
