My rationale is about having the advantage of scheme programming
approach than c paradigm. I feel this brings it's magic pedagogic and
mind friendly source code.

Indeed, i'm too newbie about the topic, i thought integration between
kernel and software was straightforward, but i can imagine that many
additional tools/steps might be required for that.

I think that's a great idea and initiative!

Thanks for the interesting reflection!
Again my knowledge on these fields are still under
development^^ so this are mainly curiosities and sensations!
Thanks!
