And I guess I should clarify - I'm coming into this outside of the Python space (I touch python because it's hard to avoid when doing AI work right now, but it's hardly my favorite language). Basically - having done a lot of GoLang, which uses goroutines in basically the same way Ruby uses Fibers (lightweight runtime managed thread replacements) I'll tell you up front - The orchestration level still matters a LOT, and you're going to be dealing with a lot of complexity there to make things work, eve
