Does Load Asset Blocking block the entire game thread?

Is there any functional difference between the two sets of nodes below?

Load asset blocking can produce a hitch if the asset can’t be loaded in quickly. Async will load it in the background with no hitches.

But in this graph I am not doing anything until it is loaded. What I’m wondering is if Load Asset Blocking will interfere with other actors executing their graphs.

Execution will stop and resume after the asset has been loaded.
