I think that a lot of web developers and users have gotten too comfortable with large amounts of memory usage. On one hand of the spectrum, web browsers are essentially remaking the idea of the operating system, but on the other hand, is the "HTML is good enough" crowd. Quite frankly, there SHOULD be a balance between these factions; and personally, I lean towards the "HTML is good enough" crowd. I've never been a fan of web apps, and I think systems programming is not beloved enough. A web page should be just that; a web page, like paper. Anything fancier shouldn't be stuck in the browser, IMHO.

I agree fully, up until the end of the sentence - my take is: everything else should be Webassembly/wasm.

If it's not a page, it's an app and that has to be wasm, because you are not allowed to treat the DOM of the browser so badly and unnecessarily bad, that it chokes under the pressure to render 1 view.
