“Motoko statically compiles to WebAssembly, a portable binary format that abstracts cleanly over modern computer hardware, and thus permits its execution broadly on the Internet, and the Internet Computer.” Andreas Rossberg is on the team behind this, he’s one of the designers of WebAssembly.

Compiling to webassembly is definitely a good thing in my opinion. We need to get the Internet off javascript and start using real programming languages to build next generation applications on the Internet.
