    Who said FP was mandatory? Scala is not Haskell, nor Lisp! If you don't like effect systems and all, don't use them. The choice is yours, actually. Kotlin's coroutines aren't better than what Scala offers. You can even use async/await in Scala. IMO, if you get yourself in a "callback hell" with Scala, then you're not using it properly. For comprehensions are easy to understand, and work with Futures, for instance.
