Nick Coghlan added the comment:

It occurs to me that given both this API and the "call_async()" API now 
proposed in issue 24571, otherwise synchronous code can do things like:

    futureB = asyncio.call_async(slow_io_bound_operation)
    futureC = asyncio.call_async(another_slow_io_bound_operation)
    a = calculateA()
    b = asyncio.wait_for_result(futureB)
    c = asyncio.wait_for_result(futureC)

Which still reads well when combined with await:

    b = await asyncio.call_async(blocking_operation)
