> What's cute about this is how far they went to make hobbyists happy.

Professionals are using hobbyist tools more and more, since these tools are just so much easier to use and don't require wading through datasheets which is like filling out tax forms.

Also IoT usecases require flexibility in connectivity.

Plus, rapid prototyping makes it easier / more likely to bring a volume product to market, and selling the same parts to hobbyists and manufacturers amortizes R&D costs more widely. It’s just makes a ton of sense all the way around.
