Amazing post, can't wait for a next part about deep dive into inner workings! It still looks magical, like calling static methods and everything is somehow hooked up under the hoods. Unless your examples were intentionally simplified? I'm wondering how the entry point to all of this looks like. Anyways thank you for taking time and writing this down!

The samples are a bit contrived, and as noted I omitted dispose calls for all but the first, but other than that this is all working code you can run. There’s no other entry point - this is the entry point!

One of the reasons it looks like magic is because it’s using thread locals to pass information implicitly down the call stack.
