I would say that banning `yield` and `yield from` is like banning `return` and `break`, but banning `await` is like banning function calls.
I agree. I was going to make the point earlier in the thread that using "await" can mostly just be thought of as a delayed function call, but it didn't seem at risk of getting banned until Guido's comment so I didn't say anything (and there were too many comments anyways).
I think it's in a different category for that reason. It's much easier to reason about than, say, "yield" and "yield from".

Seeing "await" there didn't/doesn't confuse me; seeing "yield" or "yield from" does.
+1 as well. Regards Antoine.
