The claims, including in comments in this thread read to me as "I will make this claim". Then, someone points out that the claim is inaccurate. "I didn't really mean that, I meant slightly softer version". It feels disingenuous.
What I'm seeing is an Embassy dev giving hard evidence of how this can be used for real-time tasks ironically proving that the weirdly upset people, who are claiming no one here knows what they are talking about, are in fact the ones who don't know what they are talking about.
Hey: for this particular thread, the example claim in question is It obsoletes the need for a traditional RTOS, which isn't true. See elsewhere in this comments section as well, there are several good examples.
And you can see plenty of discussions where people claim this but there are plenty of counters from others. I personally think you'd be hard pressed to come up with a situation which an RTOS could do and embassy-rs's approach would be fundamentally incapable of (at least on reasonably modern microcontrollers: as I've been banging on about in other comments: an NVIC is a really useful piece of hardware).
