Also as in Auto abgestellt und weitergegangen. So drin, dass selbst zu Fuß ohne Drüberklettern kaum drin ist.

Heck, TinyUSB has tons of boilerplate that needs copying into projects; the Rust usbd crates seemed much simpler.
(I'm using TinyUSB for a video project I'm playing with because I'm not aware of a Rust implementation of the video class)
