> I'd highly recommend a direct "port"

I'm sure there are other caveats. Also cost of the more or less straightforward Bun port was $165000 for 500KLoC.

Are you implying a direct bug for bug port is more expensive than converting to an intermediate representation and then converting via generators? Depending on the "fidelity" of the representation I'd figure the costs are about the same.
