Agreed, I realize it would need to be effectively another language, or at least a very different implementation.

This isn't to far off from what new projects like Deno and Bun are doing though, apart from also needing to spread the event loop implementation horizontally

Can you point me to what you’re talking about in Deno? That’s really interesting.
Deno doesn't implements this differently, it's just an alternative server side run time. It has some better defaults compared to node though
Oh I thought you meant they were working on horizontal scaling. I think this is very far off from what they are doing. It’s still Javascript, and you can take for granted that it follows the Ecmascript spec even if its runtime is different.
