I am actually glad about this. There are more environments with these real expectations in this world everyday. This provides the students an excellent opportunity and in an operating system with reach far beyond merely those controllers.

It does mean a challenge for the students but I have great confidence they'll grasp it.

What tools are being planned to help them debug the sorts of issues that may arise?
