I think the forcing of Async into Python is largely a waste of effort. There's better languages and tooling for those jobs. Effective devs use the right tool for the right job. I've had to work on an async Python codebase the other day, and was surprised at how janky and cumbersome the syntax is (though I shouldn't be surprised). The whole setting up the event_loop, create_task, run_until_complete, etc. just feels pretty gross. I'd rather just implement something I knew to be performant in something like Go, C#, etc. a language that supports first class coroutine-style/message passsing support...
