Also to note, ARM toyed with the idea of using a Linux distribution as alternative to MBed, but it was short love, it is already dead, it only lasted one release.

Very true. Fuchsia was also initially prototyped with a Linux kernel and well, the rest was 'history'.
Note that MBed Linux was created after MBed already existed, they just toyed with the idea of offering MBed userspace on top of Linux.
