> The only other use case is lots of truly concurrent io within one request/response cycle. But again that is unusual, most apis have low single digit db queries that are usually dependent on one another removing any advantage of async.

Why just "within one cycle"? What about situation where you spend 1s in single db query and are 100ms cpu bound during request handling?

Transitional multithreaded Python web servers handle that very well and have for decades, you shouldn't need to manually handle yealding in simple cases in your application code.

The point is asyncio is to have find grade control of yealding.
