├─────────────────────┼───────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Code Style          │ Declarative, functional           │ Imperative, procedural                       │
│ Readability         │ Linear data pipelines             │ Nested closures (callback hell)              │
│ Error Handling      │ Built-in operators (catch, retry) │ Manual error propagation                     │
│ Memory Management   │ Automatic (AnyCancellable)        │ Manual (weak/strong references)              │
│ Data Streams        │ Handles multiple values over time │ Typically single-result handlers             │
│ Chaining Operations │ Native operator chaining          │ Manual nesting of callbacks                  │
│ Debugging           │ Easier to trace data flow         │ Harder to follow async paths                 │
│ Cancellation        │ Built-in cancellation support     │ Manual cancellation logic                    │
│ Threading           │ Simple scheduler switching        │ Manual dispatch queue management             │
│ SwiftUI Integration │ Native support (@Published)       │ Requires additional bridging                 │
│ Learning Curve      │ Steeper initial learning          │ More familiar to most developers             │
