Yeah, WebAssembly have i64/u64 types as first class citizens unlike JavaScript which should emulate it or use BigInt which drastically slower than native 64-bit types. That's why crypto algorithms got a lot of speed benefits. AssemblyScript also show this. See this:

Is WebAssembly magic performance pixie dust?

Doesn't seem to stop MS with Blazor (.Net), Rust, and a few others from doing this. Also, there are plenty of games running in web assembly using bindings for things like WebGL and openal via similar bindings. As far as I know the current situation is pretty workable already and getting better. E.g. garbage collection is coming pretty soon.
I guess it depends on what you are doing. For most people doing web assembly, the point is avoiding dealing with/minimizing the need for interacting with javascript. But still, it seems there are some nice virtual dom options for Rust: https://github.com/fitzgen/dodrio that are allededly fast and performant (not a Rust programmer myself).
