Thank you so much for the context here!! And yeah: a big terminology clash is that many of the libraries for C++ come from a common lineage (almost entirely from Lewis Baker, who has been involved in the STL abstractions, wrote cppcoro, and then got allocated by Facebook to work on Folly) and use the term "task" to essentially mean "a future that you can efficiently co_await". What I'm seeing so far seems reasonably sane and arguably similar to the abstraction I have been building up using lower-level components in C++; which all makes me very happy, as I'm anticipating eventually wanting to rewrite what I have done so far in Rust.
