Good suggestion, should probably address this in the readme.
Short answer: observables do too much, and Rx is WAY, WAAAAY too large. We need simple async primitives before layering bigger abstractions on them. They shouldn't take encyclopedic amount of reading to learn. They need to come in a library that doesn't weigh over 100 KB.
