Couple of things to note

1) The Pico doesn't have an OS, by default. It's designed to run bits of code people have written in the SDK. There are no guarantees that someone won't write code that endlessly busy-waits checking for a condition, and no warnings that doing so can be harmful

2) It costs about $4. Is there really much to lose if you "risk it" with this software?
