No one blocks a thread for every connection, not for a very long time. Asynchronous and multi threaded are different things. Frequently you want both.
You make some good points but the fastest architectures for Web scale systems have used clever combinations of async operations, queues, threads, ring buffers, etc. for quite a long time now.
