this is interesting, i'm wondering if it can beat just installing go though.
I think it'd be interesting to build a adhoc config mgmt system w/ this and use it as a high level scripting language.

What's the use-case here? Where and why would one use Tiny instead of just using Go (or something else like Python)?

Faster development with an interpreted dynamic language with performance boosts from the JIT and inline Go.
You can do similar things in other languages but not AFAIK as a built in feature. You can have in line C innTCL

the niche I'm aiming for is small tools where I want a dynamic language but Go-like deployment. for example, a CLI app, an automation tool, a webview desktop app, a small HTTP server, etc... and can then be shipped as one executable without asking the user to install the runtime on their machine or manage packages
