What about ARM's mbed bet(and ARM know their stuff) , written in c++ ? no chance for it sucseeding in the IOT , yet ARM claim a large ecosystem ?

mbed is not a large ecosystem, its large in the 'IoT' world, but no one doing real embedded work (more than say half a million units) would use mbed.

>> real embedded work (more than say half a million units)

Altough most of the units shipped will be above this, won't a decent share of projects(in general ,not just the IOT) be below that threshold ?
