AFAIK the main objection to this model is that you have to write your code so that it can handle being suspended at any point. OTOH when using async-await, the only potential suspension points are the places marked with `await`.

I think this has proven itself to be the right decision. It's one of the main reasons that Rust works so well alongside other languages—there's very little default Rust runtime that complicates interop. There are also lots of programming scenarios for which green threads are not the right tool, and Rust accommodates those.

Trivially you can call any function that can block. Less trivially, any function that you can can resume any other suspended coroutine. So in practice there isn't much you can rely on. In general you can not rely on state that has escaped your function to be unmodified across function calls (although here of course rust has tools to prevent that, but they would work even without the sync/async distinction).

It is true that other code can only run at function call boundaries, but that's true for any cooperatively scheduled runtime, even with stackfull coroutines.
