As an example of this, i remember a huge debate at the time about `await foo()` vs `foo().await` syntax. The community was really divided on that one, and there was a lot of drama because that's the kind of design decision you can't really walk back from.

Retrospectively, i think everyone is satisfied with the adopted syntax.

It makes sense that there was a huge debate, because the postfix .await keyword was both novel (no other languages had done it that way before) and arguably the right call. Of course, one can argue that the ? operator set a relevant precedent.

Maybe it’s a case of agree and commit, since it can’t really be walked back.
