> C# is consistently a worse performer than most javascript runtimes currently

This is a bold claim. Please provide evidence that the most current .NET implementation (.NET Core 3.1) is slower than any JavaScript implementation.

This doesn't pass the smell test since you're comparing an ahead-of-time statically typed approach to a dynamic scripting language, both of which have had highly tuned JIT implementations, both of which are using garbage collection. You can implement things poorly in C#, sure, but you're making a much stronger claim of consistently poor performance.

Saying 'dude trust me' is not a source.
