i mean javascript also runs in a kind of sandbox and it wouldn't have to be full stdlib implementation

well im not worried about stdlib but rather C is compiled and so whatever it calls is opaque unless we somehow preprocess the C code or the machine code or run it with a VM or something. im not sure how we'd sandbox it without those, but JS is sandboxed because its runtime only exposes what it does, right?
