It's a bit early, so there are currently lots of downsides, but some potential benefits:

- The package management is a nice. Install a generic ring buffer or a board support package for the hardware you are using.

- Async-await can be really nice for dealing with hardware peripherals.

- Don't interrupts constitute concurrency?

- Reduced UB and footguns compared to C
