Microsoft looks beyond home-grown options in choosing a framework for .Net compiler. I've got nothing for this one. Sounds like long-term good news.
And besides: "LLILC can jit Roslyn compiling itself" hurts my brainsies.

They show a very contrived example. It is C# written in a very JavaScript style ready to convert. Plus it doesn't convert to standard JS but their own version.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Tried threading. No joy.

I've got to say, "Thank the FSM!" Can you imagine what the JS would have ended up looking like? You might have opened a portal to a dark dimension.
Oh wait, that's how JS was created in the first place.

I actually performed the ritual goat sacrifice, entered the threading code and awaited coming of the Cthulhu and... Object reference not set to an instance of an object.. My overlord won't be pleased.

I wonder if they ever heard of Script#...and if checked why that project wasn't a great success...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Looks like you have to learn their library and C#/JS mishmash to make it work.

“We can’t go on like this. We need to rewrite this thing from scratch.” Yet another view on the issue (that's pretty much the same as the other sane views)

Hmmm... shortly after starting my career, I was involved in 3 software rewrites.
The first two were entire system rewrites moving from a PDP-11 to a MicroVAX and took the better part of a year for each one with dedicated teams. The first one was a ROUGH, very ROUGH implementation due to not being able to fully test everything in a 'production' environment.
The second one was in place for a week when management asked when it was going in - lessons learned from the first rewrite were successfully applied.
The third rewrite was a single graphical application that had two like parts that drifted apart over time. I convinced management to let me write the application is pseudo code and then rewrite it. That was another successful implementation.
Lessons learned: take the time to fully test and ensure all teams members are aware of the environment; don't assume they have seen it before.

when are they going to be more relaxed than after such a deal?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

"Too much code on a line" and "Short variable names" are something I like to do and it makes me feel good in a bad way!
I tend to leave HTML and ASP.Net web controls on the same line rather than putting them on separate lines because of the old Netscape 6.2/IE problems. Back then IE and Netscape displayed HTML so differently, I removed a lot excess white space to deter UI defects.
I try not to declare many variables in C# or JavaScript; so that is not a problem for me. But I do create a lot of classes and ids in CSS which get ugly; such as: .pr25{margin-right: 25px;} or .len10{width: 80px;}, or even .mb5{margin-bottom: 5px;}.

I used goto once in the application that generates keys for door locks. There are 7 rules to generate key codes and evaluation logic at each step to make sure code that is being generated does not violate rules like no three adjutant cut can be identical and need to have certain relationship to master key and grand master keys and such. At any point if condition fail it needs to reset all the digits from position where it failed the rule and start from rule 1 again. I saw goto as a perfect fit.
