And that is what is being watched by those with safety-critical
requirements, and that would benefit from a robust open-source RTOS with
significant community and organizational backing.

Significant community backing won't come about if the project blindly
adopts obnoxious rules, especially with some of them having little
intrinsic value, just to let a few brag certification compliance.

What's the point of certification if you drive part of your community
away in doing so? Might as well just use a commercial RTOS where no
"community" is implied.
