Yes, I have this use-case. Wouldn't it break exisiting HTML parser? How would you make the difference between a valid script (opaque blob in the page) and some corrupted data....
Yes, that makes sense. I think the encoded binary format would be a lot more bigger that the original binary format. What would be the advantage vs code representation? I...

I can't speak for the proposal's champions but Cloudflare experimented with distributing binary AST instead of JavaScript for compatible eyeballs. We are planning to continue to work on the proposal.
We wrote a blog post https://blog.cloudflare.com/binary-ast/.
Instead of using a binary representation over HTTP I would use end to end binary stream. - bson (binary json): packing and unpacking is very simple, it's just JSON in...
Ok, sorry I didn't know it was to communicate with lambdas. As I said, bson is really a simple packing technique, it should be implementable in every languages.
