A question for the WASI folks: what is the value proposition of WASI?

For edge compute, threading, synchronization primitives, and polling (a la select/poll/epoll/etc) would be nice, but I feel like a lot of the other APIs wouldn't be very useful.

For more general server-side stuff, why wouldn't I just run native binaries directly?

Note that I'm operating under the assumption that WASI is for server-side work.
