You're going to have to know that stuff for any game engine that isn't just a pure C# framework. Unity is no exception afaik, you have to use the Unity API Job system to be able to run threads safely. I use async/await in Godot C# all the time. Threading requires using the Godot API, sure, that's natural, since threading can be a mess in video games.
