Which capabilities, and why are they welcome?

as long as it does not, in any way, use the name Amiga or (parts) of its code, its numbering or its API's. QNX comes to mind, it was light and really micro. This made it perfect for the Amiga architecture.

QNX is 'perfect' for the Amiga, even though it doesn't have any part of its API? Not for me it wouldn't be. It would be useless.

Aros uses Amiga API's which puts it at risk and has the legacy of an 30 years old OS, developed on limited hardware.

At risk of what? And why is 'legacy' and 'limited hardware' bad?
Warp 1260, Vampire, or any other hardware designed to work with the Amiga is limited by the need to be compatible with legacy Amiga software and hardware. Trying to use it for something else just artificially limits performance and unnecessarily raises the price.
Sounds like you want a machine that won't be an Amiga in any way (OS or hardware). So just put your 'light and really micro' RTOS on any modern
platform that can support it (eg. Raspberry Pi), and forget about Vampires etc.
