I don't agree with that either. C# is able to deliver code that's pre-compiled and fully optimized at the machine layer. Apart from a one time CLR load the bloat comparison holds no water. Javascript only goes to the IL layer which always interprets into machine code. Optimization with Jit are inferior, they don't have time to do the same thing as multipass compilers. Minus the one time CLR load WASM is super fast. It's ultimate niche is with those needing ultra secure run time.
