Yes, that is a good one.

I understand. I just wanted you to be aware of it.

What does 'ready to execute' mean? And why synchronously? isn't 
the idea of async to run concurrently?

Except that you would want to run immediately, and then joinAll 
on the __dtor. For it is perfectly possible to have a long living 
nursery; the one at the root of the program for instance.

E.g

---
with (Nursery()) {
   async {
}
