There are programmers who haven’t worked with anything but the HTML+JS+CSS ecosystem, especially on the front-end. Lots of sunk costs there.
Presenting WASM as a threat will lead to it facing stiff resistance from entrenched interests (amazing that people in their 20s and 30s are entrenched interests, but that’s modern front-end development).
A more gradual, evolutionary, low-hype approach seems prudent, as the platform matures and until/if someone makes the “killer app”.
