The DOS 3.3 Sys.com Bug Hunt
DOS can also be a nice, predictable runtime for embedded or low-level systems, as long as you're running x86. Some implementations are even 64-bit clean, such as this one: https://github.com/dosemu2/fdpp.
I remember this project (https://jimhall.itch.io/toy-cpu), where the author shipped his emulator as a DOS binary instead of a web-based JavaScript version.
DOS can be used as a lightweight, efficient, and predictable runtime with extremely low system requirements and no need for updates. It can run on bare metal or as a WASM binary.
The development tools are small, free, and reproducible (e.g., Turbo C), ensuring that the code will still run and compile just fine even 10 years from now. Oh, and it also has some cool TUI libraries, like QuickBASIC.

Programming with DOS Debugger (2003)
Some implementations are 64 bits, such as this one: https://github.com/dosemu2/fdpp
I wish there were an ARM-compatible version of DOS, if possible stateless. It would often be more suitable for an ARM board than a full-fledged Linux, given its almost non-existent attack surface, low resource consumption, and simplicity. Heck, I'd even like to see stateless DOS based microservices on nano-VMs.

Run on a Chrome Book or other inexpensive machine?
You a probably looking for FreeDOS plus-plus (fdpp) as your 64-bit DOS-like OS. I don't know how complete it is. It makes me shudder to think if this actually works.

linux api compatibility layer for freedos?
-I have found the following small project that attempts at making freedos 64 bit (it doesn't actually break compatibility mode but instead improves a bit over the original OS codebase), it is called "FDPP" (freedos-plus-plus) https://github.com/dosemu2/fdpp
