I get that this isn't the 'traditional way' to do things, and is just a hack that takes advantages of the similarity between the two languages.

I barely have any experience writing a VM or interpreter (or really anything that low-level), I'm just trying to provide something usable for the masses who actually want to write something that would work in an actual GS2 script, and perhaps maybe make them feel like they have a chance if they do decide to get a gold account and NC Access.

If you focus entirely on the 'bad' and give yourself reasons why it shouldn't be done, ignore any positive benefits then nothing will get done.
