@oreilly.bsky.social I've been emailing you folks for months and have yet to receive a reply from an editor. Can you have someone contact me? Thanks.

Sorry for the confusion. When I wrote that post, I had not used EF for years, but I remembered it was a pretty big thing that they had not used CA(f). I wasn't aware they added CA(f) later. The post has been corrected.

IMO usually in these cases, I would say that an event isn't the correct implementation. This is usually because events are being (mis)used to implement the strategy pattern. If it's truly a notification, then either 1) top-level exceptions are correct, or 2) save the task and await it later.
