It is allowed, but leads to complex code.

Interesting.  If I replace "gather" with three consecutive awaits of "asend", everything works as expected.  So there's some weird interaction of asend/gather, or maybe you did find a bug.  Need more time to investigate.

Would you mind to open an issue on bugs.python?
