Selfdestruct (breaks immutability), function/storage calls not declarative (hard to parallelize), hard to extend (either opcodes or precompiles), requires different toolchain (not LLVM), 256-bit words are unnecessarily large for most ops

@rabib
by hard to extend, do you mean the social labour of getting an EIP accepted or something else?

More that the only way to extend the VM is through adding a new opcode or stateless precompile. Stack/memory model is fairly basic (which is a feature)
