Eh let's not be dramatic, if you're already using async runtimes of some sort it's not that much of an upset to switch.

No, actually there are other considerations you don't have with the classic "poll for readiness then read/write" model, such as holding on to buffers until a completion is received, managing registered files and buffer rings, and multishot ops. It's really a different model, especially if you employ traditional thread based concurrency.
