Associating virtual threads with "legacy heavy weight threads" is a fundamental misunderstanding

And Java chose to join Team Go/Erlang. At the end of the day, async/await is just syntactic sugar for futures/promises, which are essentially a way out of callback hell.

Besides, Rust and Typescript aren't good examples here: a green-thread scheduler (a runtime component) contradicts Rust's philosophy, while Typescript is inherently constrained by Javascript.
