It appears as though the WASM decode returns two values -- one indicating the data type as a primitive value, and a second value being the data buffer Then there is a helper in this case to de-serialize, "primitive_array_from_buffers()

There is no concept of "executable" vs "non-executable" content in a file. A file is a bag of bytes. You can send those bytes to different things, like a text editor's content-stream, or as the input to a WASM inter
