Document the behavior of using an async client across multiple event loops. For example:

client = AsyncMongoClient()
asyncio.run(client.server_info)
asyncio.run(client.server_info) # What does this do? Is it supported?

Is it supported? Is it undefined behavior? Does it raise an informative error?

For context, Motor does not allow this but users are often confused by that behavior (eg MOTOR-1334).
