I think that is a really valid observation, and I would like to point out a couple of things:

- the WIT language decisions will end up impacting people writing WIT syntax by hand. I am not sure how large that audience is right now (and I am not dismissing the initial comment), but I really hope we could get good enough tooling that could directly generate WIT (in its eventual binary format) based on annotated source code.

- an equally valid observation here is that we need people from multiple programming languages looking at generating _idiomatic bindings_ based on the WIT format, which is what end users will interact with when using components. (Currently there are binding generators for Rust and C/C++, with hopefully Grain following soon enough.)
