Coroutine doesn't just mean cooperative multitasking, it means a specific form of cooperative multitasking. There's value in making that distinction.

Also don't get me wrong, meaning of words do change, I am grumpy about it but that's fine. Kinda feel weird to have people telling me it has always meant that.




OK, but what's the distinction? What are the different kinds of cooperative multitasking here?
