Totally fair point and I understand that as-is it’s way simpler than what I proposed. I just know there are places I have to change a whole chain of functions from sync to async to use this (not the end of the world). I’m tempted to rewrite the backend in lambda+dynamoDB for a completely serverless backend (though for anything serious you’d probably want provisioned lambdas to avoid the cold start).
