Hopefully I didn't seem too pedantic. I don't think C# having it first necessarily diminishes your point about the use of async and await in JS.

Async and await were nice additions in C# to make working with tasks more convenient, but there were other ways to manage async tasks without ending up with a tower of callbacks. The situation was messier in JS.
