I'd rather deal with an obfuscated WASM blob than obfuscated JS.

Why is that? With obfuscated JS you can instantly create ASTs, easily patch and preview the results. We have codemodding tools for mass patching and analysis. With WASM, you can theoretically have a future anti-tamper corporation with a solution to actively obfuscate binaries and antagonize reverse engineers, like we have today with desktop binaries.
