It draws attention to a problem that a lot of people have created for themselves by not reading the documentation (or not recalling it if they read it). I guess the author could have just linked the documentation but then they couldn't have added the additional context of the github search demonstrating how common it is.

I must have looked through the docs for create_task a dozen times while trying to figure out how async/await works in Python but still managed to overlook this part.
That is unsurprising. It was first added as a brief note only in 3.9, and expanded to its present length only in 3.10.
Same.
