I don't see why C++ considerations get priority over everything else, or are you making another point?

They do get priority when you're primarily coding in C++, obviously. Not everything is Javascript-first. Different requirements for different folks.

I am not a JS dev, don't project your frustration on me. ;)

So okay, FlatBuffers doesn't map its zero-copy philosophy perfectly everywhere -- fact of life. What would you offer then? Which other format and/or library?

Never used this Bebop thing, but I'd have definitely preferred it to FlatBuffers back when I was shopping for serialization libraries.
