If you look at the success examples of 1Password or Skia they do a lot of compute based on little interaction (not no interaction). "Shackled" wasm occurs when doing things like running a string validation function as a user inputs keys into an input box, when you're constantly going between JS and WASM just to do a little work each time. It's not "I passed the data from JS and therefore it will always be slow now". In short it's not "replace any JS with WASM" it's "replace JS that isn't going to complete quickly with WASM" which is exactly the JS you should want to replace, not the stuff already running too fast to notice.

PSPDFKit is another example that added WASM to great success regarding rendering and searching. And uBlock Origin as well with its massive rule lists.
