I'm still far from convinced that "eating" return values
is a bad thing. Do you worry that a value returned from
an ordinary function gets eaten if the caller ignores
it? If not, why should you worry about this with
generators?

Yes, but if all you want is to recurse over a tree, and
don't want to block on resources etc. in it anywhere, having
to use a thread framework seems overkill.
