>>> In an alternate Python timeline, asyncio was not introduced into the Python standard library,
I totally disagree with this negative perspective of asyncio.
async programming is MUCH easier to program and understand than other concurrency solutions like multithreading.
async works extremely well as a programming model as evidenced by the fact that it's exactly the model being adopted by all languages that want to implement practical and developer friendly concurrency.
When I read such a negative take on asyncio I assume only this is a developer who hasn't done alot of programming with it, and is therefore still somewhat lacking in full understanding.
