If you decide somewhere deep in your program you want to use async operations, most languages allow you to keep the invoking function/closure synchronous and return some kind of Promise/Future-like value
Which is exactly the workaround with Task.Run(), being able to integrate a library written with async/await in codebases older than the feature, where no one is paying for a full rewrite.
