I hear your rage. People should not sip the kool aid lightly.

Avoid *ANY* form of complexity unless it is really needed.
Add code only when needed
Keep things synchronous until you cannot then redesign so you can

If you really really must use asynchronous design know why you 
must and what you are getting into then decouple that code as 
much as possible.
