Yes, suspend() is a function from the Async namespace. I couldn't find any strong reasons to define it as an operator: ```php suspend(); // vs suspend; ``` For example, the spawn operator makes the code more expressive and eliminates the need for closing parentheses. await here looks more like a prefix for spawn. --- Ed.
