If they want to have these primitives then I’d prefer to have a “universal” queue API that would work with SQS, Kafka, etc. with some magic. But the developer API could be just deno.Queue or whatever

Why try to standardize the interface at all? This isn't the job of a programming language, and there is no way it can anticipate all the possible use cases. Let each service publish their own bindings, and you can a programmer can consume whichever ones you want.

Deno is not a programming language though. It's a JavaScript (TypeScript) runtime.

Deno is basically trying to be an infrastructure framework for JavaScript.
