Assuming -- for the sake of argument -- that LuaJIT runs about as fast as
optimized C, and that it will run all required programs, then what would be
the advantage of a statically typed and compiled Lua? Perhaps there might
be some advantage to achieving more correct programs with static typing,
but otherwise it's just adding an unnecessary step...
Just my 2 cents,
Mike Gogins
