To be fair,
await
is a bit more likecomefrom
, and it's been around for a few releases now.async/await was introduced in version 4.5, released 2012. More than a few releases at this point!
How is
await
likecomefrom
, any more than threading is likecomefrom
? The variable context is preserved and you have no control over what is executed before theawait
returns.
