As someone who uses channels all the time (in Nim) for cross-thread comms, this is pretty exciting. The deep-copy that Nim channels do makes things simpler at the cost of more memory allocations obviously, but even on an ESP32-S3 it's been a great abstraction. Of course I get to cheat and use actual shared memory with FreeRTOS semaphores/mutexes and such when its really required, but having channels as the first-class easy-to-use mechanism is the right move in my opinion (which is worth about as much as you just paid for it, of course)
