As we start to design more of WGSL I think we should lay out criteria for the design of the language and how we decide what is included. As a start, the criteria we've been working with are:

• text based language
• writable by programmers
• cost free bijection [wgsl] Define what bijective to SPIR-V means #582 between WebGPU SPIR-V and WGSL and back
• The bijection is simple and efficient, doesn't require an optimizing WGSL compiler
• Directly represents structured control flow
• Language is as small as possible to represent what we need
• The burden is always to show why we must add something

Other considerations we should add to the list?
