The *Note* right at the top of [1] says "Support for generator-based coroutines is deprecated and is scheduled for removal in Python 3.10." [1] https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#generator-based-coroutines But PEP 492 [2] says: "Since, internally, coroutines are a special kind of generators, every await is suspended by a yield somewhere down the chain of await calls" [2] https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0492/#await-expression If that part of PEP 492 is no longer accurate, then I have a couple of questions: 1) What Python construct is to be used at the end of a chain of await calls, if not of a generator-based coroutine decorated with `@types.coroutine` and using a `yield` expression in its body? 2) Given that the sole purpose of `@types.coroutine` is to decorate generator-based coroutines to become awaitable, will that decorator also be removed, along with "support for generator-based coroutines"?
