I didn’t partake in the write-up. Some of my views are congruent with it, some are not, and some things I feel need elaboration. So here are my own views in relation to said write-up.

# Centril's views on the "Await Syntax Write Up"

I don't agree that this is *the* primary problem; it's one of many problems to resolve;
Chaining (and thus not forcing temporaries), general composability, and working well with IDEs is among notable problems.
> Syntactic Sugar Solution:
I think it is a stretch to call this syntactic sugar in the first place. The syntax `await?` is composing `await` + `?`. In my view this is not enough semantic compression to be deserving of the description "syntactic sugar".
