Of course I do know this.

But AFAIK WebAssembly has been invented with JS in mind, so it might follow
some paradigms, that are closer to JS than to Pascal (e.g. not strictly
typed variables). So maybe some stages of the transpilation / compilation
might be similar.


WebAssembly was made with execution in a JavaScript engine in mind not with
JavaScript in mind. Reading JS-based WebAssembly code is more like reading
native assembly then reading high level code.

Sven
