Hi Edwin, I think this might have been an evolutionary oddity; the noun types were originally synchronous, and later Jono added the ability for them to be asynchronous, but he probably didn't want to break backwards compatibility, so kept the synchronous mechanism in-place. He'd be the best one to answer this question, though; I agree that having "only one way to do it" would be best.
