    I think you're missing a good amount of nuance here

    minified JS can be turned into reasonable JS, yes, but you're probably not going to get TypeScript code back, so the same sort of challenge exists there.

    Assembly -> high-level language is harder, but there are absolutely binary -> C decompilers that are very popular/used in the RE community to make changes to existing programs.

    But that doesn't even matter, WASM is much higher level than assembly, it's a stack machine, there is no arbitrary control flow / labels / `goto`, there are pre-defined data types, etc. all of this means it's easier to convert WASM -> high-level language than it is with a generic x86/arm binary.

    There are WASM decompilers[0][1] which can convert WASM binaries into C code and back.

    In both cases (minified JS and WASM), you're not going to get out exactly what you put in, but WASM doesn't really change the situation very much given the widespread adoption of 'compile to JS' languages like TypeScript these days.
