If this effort succeeds (and I hope it does) now Python developers will need to contend with the event-loop albatross of asyncio and all of its weird complexity.

In an alternate Python timeline, asyncio was not introduced into the Python standard library, and instead we got a natively supported, robust, easy-to-use concurrency paradigm built around green/virtual threading that accommodates both IO and CPU bound work.
