By design, and of necessity, I think, Ravenscar tasking looks ugly
and complicated for a reasons, even if not used for something close
to emulating the full Ada run-time support for tasking and I/O:
everything that you'd think is normally implied by the language,
such as some queues, requires manifestation.

Also, maybe you'd only think that this and that is implied by the
language: now what about bugs in programs using full Ada tasking?
Are they easier or more difficult to find when much more features
of concurrency are stated explicitly in Ravenscar programs?

Will a small board made for the ubiquitous, penniless underlings
working in cost-optimized production warrant a full Ada run-time?
Why, if systems are not meant to be flexible?
And what will be its overhead?
