Does enable async stack traces mean useful stack traces?

Node has been a frustrating language to switch to from C# from the perspective of stack traces. It seems in node they devolve into relative meaninglessness beyond the first line or two. I have fond memories of juicy stack traces like homing beacons.

I'm secretly hoping somebody will jump in to tell me I'm just reading them wrong or something...

Yes, this update will make async stack traces appear within its called context... allows for much better debugging. https://medium.com/the-node-js-collection/node-js-8-big-impr...
