Also I know there is little to no mapping between the code written in HLL like C++ and the generated code, but that isn't a reason to make me feel like I'm filling tax forms. What's the boilerplate for? It doesn't even provide logical information for compiler optimisations ... it's just there […]

(to some extent of course because more of your code would actually be data to be interpreted, but I assume you are smart enough to understand)

And also smaller than you think because your code (written in the high-level, super terse and concise language) is able to fit in the cache NEXT TO THE INTERPRETER. Like that's the key to speed.

And also all the bullshit you must give to useless details like memory or types when you know it works, it just don't work there because the language is not flexible nor well-thought, but the math are matching, just C++ isn't
