So, to bring the topic of asynchronous operations back to stream throttling; they're necessary for stream throttling because you need to process the necessary information ( incoming buffer, whether or not the cooldown has been reached, etc. ) all while the stream is reading, which would be classified as asynchronous operations?

Well, this was always a simple concept, which is why I was so surprised it was taking so long to click

It has clicked in my brain though, fortunately :)

It was good, I understand the actual application of it now, though I'll continue to read the sources you provided in hopes of learning more in-depth information about it.

Or is that a different use-case?

Wait, so if you defined a variable resulting from the the order, such as with 
var meal = await yourOrder();
var meal = await yourOrder();
It would return to that line afterwards?

Whereas, if you just asynchronously execute the task on it's own without defining it as an action, it waits it's turn?

I see, so as long as the Task is defined as an action beforehand, it will execute the asynchronous task before everything else?

Well, obviously in this case just swapping them would simply get it done, but the idea I have of asynchronous methods is one that allows the asynchronous method to execute and then step out of the way so the next lines can run while the method processes, regardless of how long it takes.

Of course, in my quick run of it, that's not the way it goes ^

Through my perception of this concept, the dothingy method should finish before the WorkAsync task.

I wrote this very tiny piece for a console application 
public static async Task Run()
{
    var t = WorkAsync();

    await t;
    dothingy();
}

public static void dothingy()
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Alright, I hope I go first...");
}
public static async Task WorkAsync()
{
    await Task.Delay(1000);
    Console.WriteLine($"Wooo, I asynchronously finished!");
}
public static async Task Run()
{
    var t = WorkAsync();

    await t;
    dothingy();
}

public static void dothingy()
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Alright, I hope I go first...");
}
public static async Task WorkAsync()
{
    await Task.Delay(1000);
    Console.WriteLine($"Wooo, I asynchronously finished!");
}

I'm going to go ahead and check out the article, but it sounds as if that's not a thread then, at least from my perspective? I, similar to probably many others, and accustomed to the idea that a a Thread runs at the same time or as/parallel to the code in front of it, not afterwards.

And this allows the task to run as/on a thread without interrupting actions ahead of it, or am I being dense at the moment?

If it's hard to explain with words, maybe you could try writing a very simple example out?
