Systems with SATA, SSDs, M2, PCI, or PCI-E are not small embedded
systems; USB not sure. For the big systems that have these things,
having a POSIX layer in between is fine, and Forth is also a cool
language for that (although there is more competition there). For
small embedded systems like Arduinos, it seems to me that programmers
prefer to talk directly to the I/O hardware rather than through a
POSIX layer.
