That's a fair reason. It's important to realize how often we re-invent the wheel in our field. As an example, you're an expert in distributed systems, which I've only recently started dabbling in. In the process I'm learning how so many of the fancy "new" distributed systems and we have today were essentially invented decades ago.

But in the WASM case, to what end? There's a cost to your comments. I'm sharing an example of how WASM has helped me solve a real problem, and might solve real problems for other people. Your comments create noise to these types of discussions.

Maybe it's worth the tradeoff in your mind, but I'm curious what your end goal is?



I can't speak to his purpose but for myself I find it interesting to consider the differences that lead WASM to help you solve a real problem where the preexisting solutions presumably didn't.
