Well built in garbage collection is non-existent. You can definitely use languages with GCs, you just need to include the GC in the bundle. You can do DOM access as well, it's just not particularly efficient.
Overall I think WebAssembly definitely has some usecases, they're just not as visible as people expected. Sites like Figma or Lichess use WASM but not in a super flashy way.
