While I do not think accidental misuse is a compelling reason to not add a
language feature, I am curious about the above claim. There haven’t been many
languages that have been around for “decades” which is not to get pedantic, but
to raise the question: what similar behaviour (as generators/yield) exists in
C, C++, Perl, PHP, etc? (perhaps Lisp?). The existence of many fine async
modules and methodologies betrays the fact that even async (which has been
around for decades) is full of pitfalls for all but the most cautious
programmer.
