This is simply not true. You can use any C# library without using async (code rewriter). You'd still be using Tasks but there is nothing special about them (no compiler magic). They're just futures on which you can schedule continuations.

PDFJS--the PDF reading package from Mozilla--is a gross offender in this regard; the mix of sync and async, and the somewhat arbitrary nature of which is which, is pretty annoying.
