If you're writing it in Forth, why bother having a C compiler?

There is a lot more software that currently exists written in C than in Dusk OS's forth dialect. The C compiler allows Dusk to run this software (once it's ported over)
The FORTH core allows Dusk OS to be ported with an absolute minimum of work. It's like an abstract machine language.
