I hate to be that guy, but I've been writing embedded systems using microcontrollers for decades. The movement to put Python on them makes me cringe.
I understand making them more approachable for developers at a higher level, but the resulting solutions need an order of magnitude more resources to accomplish the same tasks when compared to writing an equivalent system in C.
Assuming these kinds of tools are being used temporarily for proof-of-concept, I think that it is a great fit; however, we all know that there's nothing more permanent than a temporary solution.
