Hi, Just a note about use-cases:

The WebAssembly module itself may well generate, compile, and instantiate a module -- a form of JIT code generation. See https://wingolog.org/archives/2022/08/18/just-in-time-code-generation-within-webassembly for a longer discussion. Probably at some point there will be a WebAssembly proposal to address this use case. Sometimes synchronous compilation can be useful for the JIT use case, for example so you can embed pointers to linear memory in the generated module and be sure they are still valid by the time the generated module runs. Of course, generally you would still want to design for asynchronous compilation to avoid blocking the main loop, but in development at least it's nice that synchronous instantiation is possible.
