Is RTIC an RTOS?

A common question is whether RTIC is an RTOS or not, and depending on your background the answer may vary. From RTIC's developers point of view; RTIC is a hardware accelerated RTOS that utilizes the NVIC in Cortex-M MCUs to perform scheduling, rather than the more classical software kernel.

Another common view from the community is that RTIC is a concurrency framework as there is no software kernel and that it relies on external HALs.
