Exactly: V8 benefits almost everyone using JavaScript, TF doesn’t benefit anyone not doing ML with that stack.

All I’m saying is that asking why JS performs faster than Python in some cases is less about the languages and more what you could do with hundreds of engineers working for years. If the stars had aligned differently and that effort had gone into Python (or Ruby, etc.) I’d expect a similar delta.
