Repeat after me: JS is the compilation target we have.
The sooner this idea dies, the sooner we can solve the actual problem of being locked to an insanely high level VM
So, the sooner we stop making actual things, we can take a step back and start making a thing that makes things?
By all means, try to solve this problem. But if the history of the web has shown anything, it's that it's extremely difficult to entirely reboot anything. JavaScript is all pervasive, and an alternative is going to have to come up with something brilliant to displace it. I haven't seen it yet.
