the issues related to that macro still exist, but the author seemed to call it out and link to an article about it (which doesn't seem disingenuous at all to me).

That's fair, I stand corrected and I overreacted a bit.

I stumbled on the unintended cancellation a few times, but I’m used to select! paradigm from the other languages (and not used to how differently it behaves). I suppose I just expect the examples of its usage to be explicit and actually show what it takes to make select! behave in a way that doesn’t abruptly drop your async function after only going though half of it.
