One of the advantages of MicroPython for development is the firmware

Just because you have no use for Forth don't write it off.

 
With advanced things like MicroPython around (and feasible on modern
hardware), there is even less need for Forth than there was before.

 
Have you ever developed for microprocessors? Have you ever used Forth?

Yes and yes.

Are you qualified to have an opinion in this context?

Unlike some people, I don’t need to claim to have particular
certifications in order to make my words seem credible.
