I do think a big part of the problem is that people want to distribute binaries that will run on a lot of CPUs that are physically really different inside. But nowadays there's JIT compilation even for JavaScript, so you could distribute something like LLVM, or even (ecch) JavaScript itself, and have the "compiler scheduling" happen at installation time or even at program start.
