Interesting article, but it's lacking a performance comparison between wasm and javascript running in workers.
JS can be largely fast enough for a lot of use cases: if I had some WebAssembly to a project I need a good reason to do so.

WASM is mostly being used for code that has already been written and is now being integrated into a web site. I wouldn't suggest jumping right to WASM simply for performance.
