They won't collaborate, you'll get a compile-time
error, if you try. I don't think anybody requested a
collaboration.

Have you looked at my solution? It doesn't have
compile performance problems for users.

Win32 already has two threading models that can be
used in one app at the same time. They have put them
there for a reason. I have seen applications that are
using the both threading models.

Sorry but it doesn't seem that you are making any
effort at all to try to understand what I am
proposing.  Have you seen my proposal?  Does it have
any technical/peformance problems?
