libsodium author Frank Denis (jedisct1) argues that cross-language function calls shouldn't require a custom ABI, a specific runtime, or a dependency on WebAssembly.
In his view, all that's needed is a simple, widely accepted serialization format plus reuse of traditional FFI — yet he notes such a simple, universal cross-language calling convention still doesn't exist.
