Well, the runtime is mostly generated, you don't have to write it by
hand.  But, yes, writing an interpreter is work, no question.  I think
that the problem of writing an interpreter is a much smaller proposition
than playing whack-a-mole with language level sandboxing, but depending
on your language, I could be wrong about that.
