Comment (by juga):

 I looked more at this.
 `wait` is the method of an `event`
 (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/multiprocessing/pool.py#L662),
 and it blocks
 (https://docs.python.org/3/library/threading.html?highlight=threading#threading.Event.wait)
 `sleep` is not blocking because happen in the main thread.
 Probably the cause (or at least the main one) is #28897.
