Re:Basic Interpreter Hidden in ESP32 Silicon by tredre3 on Thursday November 23, 2023 @06:50PM (#38399128)
The ESP32 has 448KB of ROM that embeds most of newlibc as well as wireless drivers and part of the bluetooth stack.

From past experience I can say that tinybasic can go down to about 3-4KB in size.

So it was probably "free" in that they had already decided on a rom size to embed and they had some space left.
