Hello,
Is there a plan to have esp-now over 802.15.4?

I guess we could make something similar, but why would you want this? It's a simpler modulation scheme than WiFi, iirc.

Reasons:
-not all ESP32 are Wifi: use ESPNOW with ESP32-Hx
-latency: according to https://electricui.com/blog/latency-comparison#results 802.15.4 has a better latency than ESPNOW. But maybe 802.15.4 + ESPNOW is equivalent to 801.11 + ESPNOW?
