Spend 5 minutes reading about WASM and see how everyone involved in it keeps repeating "replacing JS is NOT the goal". Even with all the repeating, the message does not seem to be coming across.

To be fair, I imagine the original IBM PC team in 1980 kept repeating "replacing our mainframes is NOT the goal", too.
