    That bit of snark is about the ESP32 brigade that plagues every project or story that involves any non-ESP32 MCU, including this one. Yesterday I watched a long live video by the engineer of a open source engine management system, and he too had to deal with the ESP32 brigade in live chat. He has entirely reasonable technical justifications for his choices, and his explanation had about as much impact with the ESP32 brigade as I've come to expect.

      Look my comment was just a place holder for that brigade, I was just trying to keep it isolated to this comment so it doesn't plague the rest of the article. I genuinely find other MCUs very interesting and love reading about them and exploring them. However I do this Espressif has earned the fans and following they have. I've had the liberty of working with older platforms like the PIC32, and while I agree that every MCU has it's own use case, the developer community Microchip has no comparison to Espressifs. I will admit that I may be comparing apples to oranges.

        > keep it isolated to this comment Thoughtful, I suppose. Entirely futile, however, as you can see.
