Thanks for the feedback. I've addressed similar feedback at [0] and provided some more context at [1].

I do want to briefly note that the JS VM is custom and not QuickJS. It also implemented subsystems like the DOM, CSS cascade, inline/block/table layouts, paint systems, text pipeline, and chrome, and I'd push back against the assertion that it merely calls out to external code. I addressed these points in more detail at [0].
