usleep() in main loop under native posix causes the app to stop responding. Changing to zephyr's k_msleep() fixes this.

prj_native_posix{,_64}.conf feels not minimum. Have you used save config in menuconfig?

hmmm. I'm not sure why. Would you mind enlightening me?

I'm assuming that with host's usleep() Zephyr doesn't schedule the sleeping thread.

Your assumption is correct.
This change helped this application work better, but there is still the problem that the ROS and uROS libs use usleep()
Example: modules/lib/rclc/src/rclc/sleep.c
However, I wasn't too concerned about this as it only has to work well enough for CI tests on native_posix builds.
For bare-metal builds Zephyr's usleep() will be used.

That's easy to fix. See yashi/rclc#1

Would you mind explaining to me why the main thread must be priority 3?

CONFIG_MAIN_THREAD_PRIORITY=3
comes directly from the original prj.conf file of the micro_ros_zephyr_module application.
There was no indication why it was set to that value in the original project.
I had no reason to change it so left it as is.

Will do - I will convert all the prj_XXX.conf files to their minimal form.

This is default n if !POSIX_API. Why do we need this?

I've wrote this a while ago but didn't publish it. Better late than never.
