That is also my view - I pulled it as an example of differences not a
whichever is better.
Point being that key issues should be isolated and needles incompatibilities
should be avoided - i.e.
- Do you really fork?
- Can you make a common thread abstraction for extensions, if you really
need that?
Again these are just examples - I'm not entering a how to do threads
discussion.
