In theory yes. But leaving all extra functionality to the compositor makes it really complex so the freedom to write programs like these is great. I wish there was more freedom for things wayland clients can do
RTIC is really simple and doesn't use it's own HALs. Also it's macro system makes it hard to modularize your code since all tasks need to be in one module. I've played around with it a bit and it seems like it could be great in the future, but currently not really.
Embassy has it's own HALs which makes it better at async and has also nicer ergonomic IMO

Worth noting, you don't HAVE to use the embassy HALs with the embassy executor. However, AFAIK, the only mainstream non-embassy HALs that supports async is the ESP32 HALs.
There's no technical lock in, it's just that everyone I've seen implementing async support (outside ESP32) tends to do it within the Embassy project today. That may change over time.
