@fishrock123 1/2: promises are a container type (like arrays), with access patterns that must answer 1 specific question to access contents

@fishrock123 2/2: I've found that beginners respond to what tutors tell them is complicated, & it's dangerous to make that decision for them

@isntitvacant You might be conflating complexity with perceived ease? (…)

@fishrock123 (Anecdotally, I definitely recall nested arrays giving me problems as a beginner :) )

@isntitvacant I’m also not 100% sure this is really a beginner’s judge thing. (…)

@isntitvacant … we are far more likely to know what is actually complex in a complex setting

@fishrock123 FWIW, I use promises on a daily basis in fairly complex situations, the complexity of the pattern has not been a factor.

@isntitvacant I fail to see why this makes them array-level complexity
