I think green threads (Java Virtual Threads, Go to an extent) are strictly superior to async/await.

If you don't have many threads, OS threads are okay as well. It is all about memory and scheduling overhead.

But that is just my opinion. You are welcome to have a different opinion.

No I don't think your opinion is "wrong" or anything, it's just that this is a language-level limitation and not a valid criticism of NodeJS.
