They were never particularly all that fast, especially not in the browser where support is far from acceptable. Most implementations rely on runtime magic, reflection, and other hacks.

So in that sense they aren’t all that modern as they’ve failed to evolve and keep up with platform evolutions.

Bebop just aims to generate code that modern and current with its target language, works everywhere, and avoids pitfalls protobuf suffers from.
