No matter what language you pick or invent, it's gonna be hated by many. Intermediate representations? Sure, but much less so. But you are absolutely right that clouds need a fundamentally different runtime, built on different ideas and principles - not virtual machines running containers pretending to be functions, all completely separate from resource declarations (which are in turn all individual nuanced messes).
