It's not missing the point if TS is a bad fit for WASM, which it kind of is. Frankly, it's not really TS, it's an odd, unofficial subset of it - kind of like hacking some nice things about TS to 'make it work'. Not only is there the fact that it's OO, it needs a VM, it doesn't even support Strings ... so many questions marks. V8 as it turns out is a pretty good black box. Every one of us runs completely untrusted code on our machines ever day. Pretty most (all?) Shopify staffers and devs are, every day, running untrusted JS code on V8. So it's nice to see progress, and I can't wait to see more details, but it looks tricky from the start ... and TS was never going to be the obvious starting point for WASM.
