I’m okay with Rx, same principles.

Coroutines has some API design stuff I find comes back to bite you at larger scale. Basically that your code depends on the context it’s run on.

IO allows you to write Rx-like code in the style of coroutines and feels like a middle ground solution. Maybe that’s the issue, not siding with either camp or having distinctive strong design choices.
