Agreed with this. OxCaml still requires a runtime, so it's not suitable for some applications, like embedded systems, where e.g. Rust can be used. But it certainly can be used for many of the same applications. E.g. Bun, which has been on the home page recently, could easily be written in OxCaml.
Many embedded systems use languages with runtimes, the runtime is the OS, there is nothing else underneath.
Examples, real time Java, Oberon, Pascal, BASIC Stamp, Propeller,..
