I like that one of the opcodes is "FixThisBeforeWeMerge".
Looking this over, I can see why my initial reaction of "why aren't you using WebAssembly?" was facile; this really is a VM optimized for templating languages.
I'm reminded of the Bad Old Days when I was a ClearCase admin; we ended up building what my boss at the time called a Revision Control VM on top of it, so that our developers never really learned ClearCase per se; instead, they learned our system that happened to use CC under the hood. Since then, I've treated the term "VM" with a looser interpretation than usual; clearly, I should have applied that here (though it is, strictly speaking, a VM in the classical sense as well).
