Comment on Lunatic is an Erlang-inspired runtime for WebAssemblyparent

On the contrary, wasm is extremely opinionated for an assembly-level language. I mean, starting with the part where it literally doesn't have goto, and "almost every language" like C++, C#, or really anything else that has such a construct on language level has to rewrite it into (sometimes much less efficient) loops, conditionals, and/or duplicated code. Or we could talk about how code and data are strictly separated in memory, so no JIT and no language features that require it.
