-Fibers allow for transparent non-blocking I/O implementations of existing interfaces (such as PSR-7, Doctine ORM, etc.). They return the need for generics, because return values can use proper types directly instead of placeholder values.+Fibers allow for transparent non-blocking I/O implementations of existing interfaces (such as PSR-7, Doctine ORM, etc.). This is because the placeholder (promise) object is eliminated.
