Right, but actually nginx mod_wsgi *can* execute every WSGI application
in a *conforming* way (I'm completing full support for WSGI 2.0, and
after this I will implement WSGI 1.0).
Of course some classes of WSGI applications runs *better* if they don't
block the nginx process loop too much, so that nginx can serve multiple
requests at the same time.
It is simply a matter of optimized execution.
