Could just buy an ESP32 board instead, at least that doesn't suck down power and need to boot Linux to function.
They probably could have used a Pico, certainly a zero instead of a 4
This is what I mean. It’s not like they are running some kind of image processing or literally anything heavy.
Just seems way over the top. Also my bet is it they didn’t bother with bespoke hardware they probably didn’t do much to power optimize.
