Thanks for this perspective, I think from my naive standpoint I would build a flow-based system at the application layer and simply code generate/translate to standard networking calls.

However even with such a paradigm I could see plenty of potential for abuse, even unwittingly - while sequential programming forces you to try-catch, flow based programmers may end up connecting the “error flow” back to the original flow that caused the error, creating an infinite loop that would be much harder to debug.
