Note that with std::execution, c++26 will have a default async runtime (similar to how C# has a default async runtime).
This means that c++26 is getting a default coroutine task type [1] AND a default executor [2]. You can even spawn the tasks like in Tokio/async Rust. [3]
I’m not totally sure if this is a GOOD idea to add to the c++ standard but oh well.
