Too nice : )

I could be misguided, but I find that I gravitate toward low-level IO, like 
the interface that fs provides.  The cool thing about fs (not the streams, 
but the posix functions), is that I can wrap them in whatever abstraction 
makes sense at the time.  I can create my own stream classes around it, or 
I can make it callback-based or promise-based if I prefer.  At the lowest 
level, it's pure simplicity:

    read: 
      fill this buffer with this many bytes, please, and call this 
      function when yer done (and let me know how much you 
      wrote).

    write: 
      write this many bytes from this buffer and let me know when
      you're done with said buffer.
