There was a problem hiding this comment.
To be honest this looks more like a thorough description of and rationale for the changes to support free-threading (and asyncio pstree), than a description of asyncio internals. As such, I think it belongs somewhere but I'm not sure if InternalDocs is the right place. Maybe @iritkatriel has an opinion?)
Nit: Call me old-fashioned, but could you please break lines longer than 100 or 120 characters? (Preferably at commas, semicolons, colons and periods.)

This documents the work I did in 3.14 for better performance in both free-threading and gil builds and scaling asyncio in free-threading.
