This makes it so that `stream.push(chunk)` is the only way to signal the end of reading, removing the confusing disparity between the callback-style _read method, and the fact that most real-world streams do not have a 1:1 corollation between the "please give me data" event, and the actual arrival of a chunk of data. It is still possible, of course, to implement a `CallbackReadable` on top of this. Simply provide a method like this as the callback: function readCallback(er, chunk) { if (er) stream.emit('error', er); else stream.push(chunk); } However, *only* fs streams actually would behave in this way, so it makes not a lot of sense to make TCP, TLS, HTTP, and all the rest have to bend into this uncomfortable paradigm.v0.9.11-release
