After reading further about the attribution issues vis-à-vis arduino, wiring, processing, board design vs fabrication, I’m certainly disappointed in human behavior, nevertheless the collective value of these tools in onboarding people to the wonderful world of microcontrollers and direct programming is not to be dismissed. There’s absolutely no technical cost to using arduino tools to program even at advanced levels, if you don’t run into issues doing so for other reasons like compiler flags etc. The only runtime costs can be avoided with care in library choice, as the wiring language constructs have no runtime costs, but occur at compile time
