I don't understand the push to make the browser a tool for securely running general purpose applications. This is the job of the OS. We keep building layers on top of layers of abstraction instead of fixing or improving what we have.

I think web apps are dead anyway and the browser is heading towards being a legacy software. The future is small ephemeral UIs generated on the fly by LLMs that have access to datasources. WASM is too late.
