And on top of that Kotlin is now basically stuck with async-await forever. Removing async-await from the language and designing a more superior model the JVM now allows for with Loom is probably not going to happen. Adding a new model based on the new possibilities Loom provides will probably cause too much fragmentation (unless they come up with some really clever interop) so thats also unlikely. Kotlin could be stuck here with a inferior co-routine model; Handicap of a headstart. Tough of course time will have to tell if the model Loom introduces in Java is going to be as great as it sounds.
