Do we need this package with webcil format from .NET 8 blazor wasm?

[fingers10]

@stavroskasidis Thank you for your wonderful works. This package solves many issues.

And as per the documentation - https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/asp-net-core-updates-in-dotnet-8-preview-4/#webcil-packaging-for-blazor-webassembly-apps ,

Starting .NET 8 Blazor wasm releases will support webcil format. So I would like to understand how this package will different from that? Please can you assist?

With .net 8 this package becomes obsolete. You should use the new webcil format that will hopefully solve all the issues this package solves.

Does WebCIL obfuscate the .NET assemblies? What reason do we have to believe that L5 firewalls, A/V etc. won't be smart enough to recognize .NET metadata and block it?
