Well, so far the article is probably the main reason why structured concurrency is being added to both Java and Kotlin.

Yeah this random blog post from 2018 is definitely why Oracle started Project Loom in 2017.

I didn't say it started Project Loom I'm saying this article is one of the main reasons structured concurrency is being made part of project Loom.

A link to this particular article have literally been on every project Loom slide coming out of Oracle for the last two years. You can watch Ron Pressler talk about it himself here [1].
