That makes sense assuming you have already written your backend in JS. In that case, yeah the bar for rewriting in another language should be high (as it should be for any ground-up rewrite). But it's not a "premature optimization" when you are deciding on the tech stack to begin with.

Using a second language for performance (which is what the post I replied to was suggesting) is a premature optimization - you're paying all the costs of having your code in two different languages, for a benefit that will only start paying off when you're much bigger if at all.
