I got that understanding here:

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/thread/async

coroutines (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/coroutines) are unrelated to std::async

In other languages they are tightly related to async/await and I made the mistake of assuming they were connected.

I think even gccgo used threads as coroutines, not sure if it's still the case
