How do I call to suspend functions and wait for both to finish, but execute both in parrallel?

suspend fun getTwoThingsInParrallel():List<String> {
    apiService.oneLongTwo()
    apiService.secondLongCall()
      ...
//do something with the result
}

Like this? I thought awaitAll was sorta bad practice? https://stackoverflow.com/a/57458479/1048909

suspend fun foo(): List<String> {
    coroutineScope {
        listOf(
            async { apiService.onLongTwo() },
            aynsc { apiService.secondLongCall() }
        ).awaitAll()
    }
}

I have not heard anyone say awaitAll is bad practice 🤔

The accepted answer in the SO linked you sent is better than my version btw, it doesn't need the list

The coroutineScope builder function is specifically for the parallel decomposition of work in conunction with async , launch and friends.

Why do you think it's a bad practice?
