Yeah, just wait until you see multiple megabytes of WASM instructions for tiny progs or the realize the team does not care about non-web targets. You're much better off leveraging Rust's WASM support for resource limited, non-web WASM targets.

In my case I was less interested in the WASM part of it than I was in something targeting a "no OS" environment. That said, for my target (those little Pine64 RTL8710 Cortex M3 MCU) you're almost certainly right. On the other hand it's a hobby project, and I like writing Go while I find writing Rust to be a bit of a chore. Also, it's a hobby project, so distractions like re-targeting WASM to the ARMv7-M are half of the fun :)
