am i still needed for atomics or no, seems like confusion was resolved
If you have any context knowledge about what sort of abstraction level was the target of the Atomics.wait/waitAsync/notify APIs, I'd be interested in hearing: was it intended that they're a pretty high-level abstraction above OS futexes, emulating the Linux futex APIs on all platforms with built-in performance optimisations and so on? Or was it intended to rather be a low-level API, providing more of a direct access to OS futexes that just ended up defined in a way that didn't actually really make that possible?
