Yes. But this is a very basic example. When you have an async function defined with `await` statements in it and later on in the function you do a call to a `blocking` function you need to be aware that you have to run in the threadpool.

You don't always know that a function call is blocking, because you don't always know what is happening behind the scenes of that function and on what it depends.
