Its Broadcom CPU has a weird way to boot, and needs proprietary drivers, which means you are stuck with Linux, can't go baremetal. It's a great board for people that code on top of Linux, though.
Hmm, the Raspberry Pi may be a poor choice for other reasons, but it's certainly not limited to Linux - there's at least one other OS and there are several bare-metal projects.

I just learnt of Ultibo, and I stand corrected. Looks like you aren't stuck with Linux anymore, as much of the hardware is being supported. However, you are limited to GPL license.
Also, I'm not sure the term "baremetal" even applies when you have a full RTOS running on the GPU and providing services, but let's say for simplicity that an application built with Ultibo would count as baremetal.
