It is rather obvious at this point that it is very difficult to 
gain momentum with the current design. But you see some of the 
same type of complaints on the Rust forums too (complaints that 
Rust is too constraining, too complicated, weird etc).

Right now, the best language for targeting WASM would have a 
chance. Maybe Zig, maybe Rust, probably not Go, Nim or D. 
Currently C/C++ is perceived as being the best option for WASM, 
AFAIK.
