@mattiem I bet!
I imagine if I was doing a lot of async experimentation I would run into the top-level-code differences more, but I'm usually writing some structure and then some (synchronous) algorithm to try, and the way playgrounds show intermediate results aren't great when there's recursion. That's when I swap over to a "real" project.
