The point is that you can more easily and clearly sandbox the wasm plugin. If the python implementation tries to send http requests but the wasm sandbox has no network access you are safer in wasm than in python.

Unless you choose to sandbox your python. Obviously the language itself doesn't support this, but most OSes have functionality for this that can be applied to any application or code, not just wasm.
