I still wish all of these would default to a synchronous mode of operation, maybe with something like an „unawait“ keyword for those cases where you really benefit from async behavior?

I'm curious, when do you need this?

I still use `writeFileSync` and such out of habit, but I don't think I really need them since we got first-level await (out of async functions).
