But you need multithreading to have maximum throughput since you often
process the data while other data is available.

 
In a lot of applications, the bottleneck is the network I/O, or a GUI
waiting for the next user event, that kind of thing. In this situation,
multithreading is more trouble than it’s worth. This is why coroutines
(in the form of async/await) have made a comeback over the last decade
or so.

 
Having a single thread and using state machines is more effortz.

It would indeed. That’s why coroutines (async/await) are so handy.
