I think what makes it a popular codegen target has more to do with - The places it can run - The ecosystem it can interop with Not that it's a bad codegen target otherwise- it's high-level but performant for being so high-level, it's garbage collected, first-class functions, low-level primitives are available for optimizations, etc. But these on their own don't make it super unique
