Async is strictly more limited than the more generic LINQ comprehension syntax.

Actually in F# computation expressions are way more powerful, as they can define their own "keywords" within given semantics. This is for example, how `query{}` computation expression works - and unlike linq it can support things like left joins natively just because entire sql-like syntax is defined by library, not hardcoded into language. Same for async, yield generators etc.
