But a transcompiler will always be a kludge, at least when the target language hasn't been designed as a bytecode.
Most importantly, I'd bet that the intersection of developers who:
(1) can write good software; and
(2) Can write decent JS code, but can't become proficient in Lua within a couple of days;
is mostly empty.
