@Peter Gamma You mention external sensor devices. And the intent to add the information from them to the PineTime.
Have you considered that another way to do this is an App on a smart phone, (like the PinePhone), and then make the information available to the PineTime?
That would save processing power, battery power and the PineTime watch would simply update the information every now and then. (How often would depend on what information...)
Anyone thinking of using Linux on the existing PineTime needs to review the hardware;

The current PineTime hardware has 64KBs of RAM. (Yes, that is KiloBytes, not MegaBytes.) Plus, has a single core 64 MHz ARM Cortex-M4F.
