@mflatt this doesn’t make sense to me, isn’t the thread’s continuation part of the execution of the fututre?

I would say that the point of a thread is to be a different continuation, independent of the continuation of the computation that started the thread

Returning the “handle” of the created thread is part of the example future’s continuation above, but nothing about the thread’s own continuation is part of the future’s continuation or vice versa

I think the documentation could be a little clearer then, I’ll submit a PR
