Hynek Schlawack added the comment:

More explicitly:

The doc sells the function short.  If you have a bunch of futures and want to 
know as soon as one of them is ready: this is the function for you.

The only hint that this is the actual behavior comes from the *name* of the 
function; not the documentation.
