I’ve been following a similar issue in Swift (which is informed by some learnings from the Rust side of things). Here is a link to the latest language complexity resulting from this: https://forums.swift.org/t/sub-pitch-task-local-values-in-is...

There are a number of other proposals linked to this issue that can be referenced from that thread. I hope there is a next generation async model for future languages that is truly simple, because this all makes me think footguns are endemic to the current approach (which is broadly the same in Rust and Swift).
