Imagine you are building a game in Rust where players can write mods. Those mods could be written in JS/TS while the game is written in Rust.

It of course doesn't need to be a game. VBA macros in Office and AutoLISP in AutoCAD are two examples of scripting environments on large compiled applications that allows users to customize and automate behavior, outside of gaming. Hell, you can point at Emacs and vim as examples too.
I wonder about Helix plugins.
