Right but it’s more like someone is an expert in the “async” method. You’d expect them to be expert in whatever language they’re using, so the framing threw me off.

Yeah I get what you mean. Could just be a quirk of the reporting too - like you might write a lot of async python, comment on some hot topic case using that knowledge, GIL removal say, and then get labelled 'async functions expert Darth Avocado' when really you'd never think of yourself that way.

The reality is that the real world is infinitely more complex than the toys we make in the software world.
