WASM serves a very specific and small (even smaller back then) niche of resource-heavy web apps like games or heavy productivity apps, which are rather in the minority on the Web

I fully agree on that. Tho, what I meant was, when it first came out (around '17 or '18), the hype level was like: it's an absolute necessity to use it for a calculator app, just to show all the 'cool kids' on the block you are familiar with it too, hahah :)
