Comment (by anonymous):

 Strands don't make ASIO thread safe by the way. It only makes the
 callbacks thread safe. You still can't read/write from multiple threads,
 even when calling from within a stranded callback. I've made several tests
 to prove this to myself, and like you I am very disappointed and kind of
 baffled.
