There are some pretty bad usability problems with most async APIs too.

One is they make your functions colored; async functions world best with other async functions while normal blocking functions work best with other blocking functions.

They also introduce a lot of noise; putting async/await everywhere doesn't tell you anything interesting.

Considering a normal-sized Linux server can handle a million threads without much trouble, it really seems like misplaced effort.
