Someone hasn't payed attention to the AOT compilers available for C# and Java, their widely deployment on embedded platforms, PTC, MicroEJ, Aicas, WebSphere Real Time, Android Things, wearOS, Ricoh, Cisco, Netduino, Meadow, IoT Core and many others.

Yes, maybe not on a satellite's firmware, but on a Gemalto firmware, certainly.

Just two examples from their portfolio.

Naturally it depends on how much memory is available and real time constraints.

However something like MicroEJ is already happy with an ESP32 variant, and I guess Rust could replace its C layer.
