Yes, I'm saying that this would not move forward without buy-in from non-programmers with influence. But language isn't the only thing. WASM is (correct me if I'm wrong) harder to reverse engineer, which must matter to those same stakeholders.

I don't see how it would be harder to RE than .NETs IL (which is pretty easy to RE), or even plain old assembly -- which looks horrible, but can be disassembled and even "decompiled" (which generates a potential C source from the disassembled bytecode).
