Yeah, and a bunch of other languages that also compile to wasm. But wasm is rarely a "first class" citizen (it is a tier 2 target for Rust, so there are no automated tested, for instance), so again, can't fault anyone for not making that choice. But yeah, would be interesting. Actually, I'd also be interested in a perf+efficiency comparison between JS and $lang+WASM on the backend, because this discussion makes me realize that the JIT tradeoffs are wildly different for a long-running process servicing many requests per second compared with many copies of a single-user client.
