Experts need control more than anything else. This is not to say they'll be happy with a subpar API but control typically means lots of details so there's a limit on how abstracted the API can be. As mentioned, given the API provides low level control one can build a higher level one for their own needs. The topic of ordering is complex by its nature, there's a danger in hiding details in more abstract API.
I understand that, and that is reasonable. However, will it be possible to build higher level APIs on this that do not suffer the same costs that make the existing Atomic* classes unattractive?
