gollark: Yes it is.
gollark: These "modules", they could communicate over some sort of unified IPC framework with some standard format or whatever, but probably each language/framework would end up having to implement its own method of rendering what gets sent over.
gollark: They can just send JSON-serialized messages or whatever, it's just slower than using one binary.
gollark: Not really.
gollark: I mean, programs are written in Java, C(++), Rust, Python, whatever else, some of them run in browsers with their own totally different system, and none of them are particularly binary-compatible.
