Don’t most people generally mean the target binary from the compiler and not the compiler itself when someone says “see * running on this architecture”?

I can see for some dynamic languages there being a destination between the two, but for compiled binaries, generally Rust on X, it doesn’t seem important if rustc also runs on X (especially when discussing micro-controllers since one would rarely run a full compiler on the chip itself).

And the rest are Forth users happily running interactive, extensible compilers with built in assemblers, block IO, screen editors in a multiuser, multitasking environment.

All 10 of them...sure.

Well, when someone says "see Doom running on this architecture", they usually do mean that Doom is running on the architecture. So "Rust for the MOS 6502" or something like that would have been better. But yeah, maybe I'm too nitpicky and unfair to a non-native speaker...
