You're not wrong at least in the general case, however:

1. This isn't about adding a separate thread in my case. I'm writing a library to allow you to use threads more easily than FreeRTOS otherwise lets you
2. This isn't true if you're writing a library that includes a threadpooler on a system with a primitive scheduler that's prone to starvation.
3. Threads don't care. Hell, my code doesn't care. But it's sure hard to demonstrate out of order execution and resyncing execution order for a *demo* when I can't get the execution order to scramble in the first place
4. Yeah, but this isn't windows, see also, craptastic scheduler
5. If you're doing that to force a context switch I'm not sure what's wrong with you. =)
6. Absolutely true. To that end my library provides you access to *none* of those. Laugh | :laugh: Seriously though, it offers you a message passing system in the alternative
7. See also, craptastic scheduler
Real programmers use butterflies
