WASM enabled multi-language scripting

Using pyscript as an example, and an excuse to visit scripting envs (snippets, content scripting etc) in devtools.

Note how this ovelaps with Quarto multi-language support

implementation

oI have a question - when I start using it, say ...

ps = (await import("https://esm.sh/pyscript@1.0.6")).Pyscript

I'm immediatly tempted to use ps as ... a JS library :-D , i.e.

ps.max([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,6,5,4,3])

This is more convenient than, say,

[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,6,5,4,3].reduce((a,b)=>Math.max(a,b))

so my question is if regular users won't slide to loading language interpreters for the convenience of calling specific methods, which they might otherwiese have called from a js object where, say

js={max:x=>x.reduce((a,b)=>Math.max(a,b))}

which would cause

js.max([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,6,5,4,3])

to produce just the same "7" result, and potentially more efficiently (no need to load interpreter, potential advantages of functional patterns triggering parelelization, etc
