> Async is... a tangled mess. I'm pretty sure its just the modern "unstructured goto" style of spaghetti that has been rediscovered. Yeah, its super-efficient, but no, its not really easy to program. That's not inherent to async though, just a property of the implementations that have seen widespread adoption. There's nothing stopping async from implementing the same process tree semantics; in fact, there's at least one high-level async library that does exactly that (python-trio, https://trio.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ https://trio.readthedocs.io/en/stable/)
