TBH personally I have yet to work on any professional async Python project (Django based or not) which did not have event loop pauses due to accidental blocking IO or CPU exhaustion.
I take your point fully though that a lot of Django's "async" methods are really using a thread pool. (True for much closed source async code as well!)
