> What's that? Some alternative to AbortSignal to gently prevent async code from continuing all the way to its logical conclusion?

Yes, a way to terminate down-stream. It turns out to be a pretty messy problem. I didn't know AbortSignal was in Node now. It's been a while since I revisited this issue. I should read more.

> Also please be sensitive and don't use "kill" in new code. ;) We already have to deal with "abort".

Point taken!
