Contrast it with async in JS/ES as an example... now combine it with the using statement for disposeAsync instances.

    await using db = await sqlite.connect(await ctx.getConfig("DB_CONN"));

It's not so bad when you have one `await foo` vs `foo.await`, it's when you have several of them on a line in different scopes/contexts.

Another one I've seen a lot is...

    const v = await (await fetch(...)).json();
    

Though that could also be...

    const v = await fetch(...).then(r => r.json());

In any case, it still gets ugly very quickly.
