That applies equally in the other direction, of course.

The discussion has been interesting, but I really don't think either you
or the paper's author have done yourself justice here.

I have not seen any clear arguments from you about /why/ you think
event-driven threads with state machines are so much better - "proof by
repeated assertion" does not wash.  I have not seen any counters to my
alternative suggestions, nor any solid reasoning why strict event-driven
threads with state machines are somehow easier than more flexible
solutions.  And I certainly have not seen any good argument for why
using /one/ tool should be so much better than having that tool as an
option amongst several.

I am of the opinion that having more options lets you pick better
designs.  (I actually think that in a great many cases where people use
RTOS's, they would be better with a simpler non-OS design.  I am not a
believer in "everything should be RTOS".)  But despite my clear opinions
here, I think I could have come up with more and better arguments in
your favour than you did.


Still, as I say, it has been an interesting discussion in many ways, and
it is good to see this sort of thing in the newsgroup.  It has been too
quite for too long.
