    It is a lot, but not quite 1000, yet. From https://webassembly.github.io/spec/core/appendix/index-instr... I see 436 instructions including SIMD which is over half the population. If I filtered it correctly, it looks like there are about 203 instructions in Wasm without SIMD. Many of those are not necessary for most programs.

    There at least three small Wasm interpreters in Rust

    This list has 169 Wasm instructions https://github.com/rolfrm/wasm-lisp/blob/master/instruction....

    Wirth's RISC is neat, I'd love to re-do it in RISC-V (only 47 instructions in the base ISA). UM, Chifir and UXN look like Art (not pejorative), I'll definitely read the Chifir paper. They would be great systems to run on top of Wasm.

    One might be able squeeze a Chifir VM into an ESP-32 (with external PSRAM).
