Statements like "async is a language design dead-end" is the confidently correct misinfo that I'm talking about. You can't expect anyone to take you seriously if you authoritatively present your opinions as gospel.
Should I instead have interpreted it as "async is a language design dead-end, and by dead-end I mean overfitted standard for the problem space?" Because I really have to be charitable and put words in your mouth to paint your argument in a good light.
