I noticed that the methods generated on the module class all require a store to be passed in, but isn't the store paired with the instance created in the constructor? I'm curious as to what the intent is with this separation.
Alex Crichton (Sep 29 2021 at 18:40):There's some more information about the API design here -- https://github.com/bytecodealliance/rfcs/blob/main/accepted/new-api.md -- but the general gist is that the store is a "uniquely owned" object and an Instance is effectively just an index of an object within a store, so it doesn't mean anything outside of the store
