In my experience async drop is a nice to have, not a must. Futures::block_on is good enough for the happy path in low stakes scenarios.

When dealing with async operations they tend to end up at a network boundary and thus the service enters distributed system land.

Now the async drop also has to handle the server crashing before the drop happens and at any time when it happens. Keeping that in mind trying to actually drop something becomes quite meaningless since you need to handle all other cases either way.
