The Zig compiler compiles lazily and does not detect dead code. (Read: functions that are not called from any compiled functions)

I don’t understand this comment. Are you implying omitting the chicken is some sort of conspiracy?

Not to get into an argument, but most of the population in the Middle East are Muslim who don't give two shits who killed Jesus because they don't believe he was killed to begin with.

The component model is still in phase 1 (standardization is phase 5) and the Bytecode Alliance are its sponsors and the ones pushing it into the ecosystem with wasmtime.
