post hoc, ergo propter hoc -- this is a logical fallacy
1 comments

This would be a post hoc, ergo propter hoc fallacy:

1. async feature proposed and implemented in neovim

2. vim comes out with its own async feature.

shazow's post has significantly more evidence of neovim's responsibility, enough that it isn't a fallacious argument. It isn't definitive proof, either.
