I have seen plenty of (usually junior front-end) devs resort to exactly this kind of cargo cult coding and magical thinking.

Well, they're junior devs. You're supposed to help them get past that stage, not just throw away all your tools.

[eurasiantiger]

What made you think I haven’t been helping them?

I'm going out on a limb here and assuming the issues with their code don't begin and end with async.

So you agree with each other then?

Good day, axe handle.
