WASM is more efficient than JS...

  I think they were just pointing out that software architecture will usually make a much bigger impact on efficiency and energy usage than language choice A bloated app is wasteful no matter what language its in

  > WASM is more efficient than JS... Last time I checked it wasn't. That's a few years back. I would be really happy if it is now.

  It highly depends on what the use case is. For most use cases JS is still more performant than WASM unless you're doing a lot of very heavy number crunching which the vast majority of WebApps aren't. Browser vendors have done a ton to make JS fast.

  WASM does not have native access to DOM for starters.
