I think profiling is probably the lowest value good here, but would be willing to hear out stories of AI middleware applications that found value in that.

Cancelling tasks is probably the highest value good here, but I think the contending runtimes (TS/Python) all prefer using 3P libraries to handle this kind of stuff, so probably not the biggest deal.

Being able to write good Go code is pretty cool though; I don't write enough to make a judgement there.
