Yah I figured the only practical use case is during a job interview, making them explain XMLHttpRequest vs Promises vs async/await. :p

There are some remaining mismatches: cancellation (on the way w/ fetch()), progress events (streams can re-create, but not easily), and sync mode (which should never be used in prod, obvs).
