Yes. This is in fact a CAP theorem tradeoff. Binlog asynchronous replication means they've elected to be AP. If you want zero risk of data loss for committed transactions (for single node failure), you'd replicate synchronously to one other replica. But then, both the primary and replica would need to be available and connected for the leader to accept write transactions, making it CP.
