Point in case: Ben Eater recently uploaded a video where his “BIOS” consists of two I/O functions and compiles into less than 250 bytes. Double that if you count his port of WOZMON. We can argue later if that constitutes an operating system - I mean, it’s not POSIX compliant but it does operate.
To be fair, a simple operating system project is not that hard to implement.
