No, it's not, all the magic is enabled by default, only piecemeal
measures have been taken over the years in order to prevent blocking
behavior, so for example now eldoc disables itself forever after 1s
timeout. But that's not true of non-native completion AFAICS and
it certainly isn't of C-c C-f (help on symbol). And improving on this
by adding even more special cases doesn't sound like a good idea.

Best regards,
Carlos
