" It's not a language"

It sure looks like a language to me, like some sort of assembly language.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/WebAssembly/Text_fo...

granted this is a textual representation (very useful in certain circumstances) but that is semantics. Having done plenty of assembly, I don't see a huge distinction here.
