I have found this comment on liburing[0] which clarifies some things for me. So is it because something like getaddrinfo is not just a simple operation, but a hodgepodge of stuff like "first try nscd, then read resolv.conf, then make a bunch of requests using one of many different protocols"?
I think I have a lot more to learn about DNS...

> [re: implementing getaddrinfo] It's not planned because it's not a single operation but a complex beast reading files, exchanging messages, etc. IMHO, as it's not a single operation it fundamentally doesn't fit liburing, but implementing under some framework on-top would be more viable.
