Which Backpressure Gap

Inspect the producer pseudo-code. What architectural problem does this introduce under overload?
Starter code
class Producer:
    def emit(event):
        while True:
            try:
                queue.put(event, timeout=0)
                break
            except Full:
                # retry immediately, keep pushing
                continue
