Your concept of threads does not really hold.

Regarding the thread object (TThread descendant) instance itself:

It's creator is called by some thread (usually the project's main
thread) but of course not by the thread that is going to be created.

Some of it's properties and functions are _supposed_ to be used by the
thread it owns (e.g. "Terminated")

Some of it's properties and functions are _supposed_ to be used by other
threads (e.g. "Terminate")

It depends on the user code what self-created additional functions and
properties are to be used by whom and if they can be considered to be
thread save.

Same holds for stuff created outside of the thread unit, but supposed to
be used by the thread ("Execute" procedure).

(There is no simplified concept.)

You know that he wrote the following, stressing the part in the parenthesis:

Assuming this few statements (aka my own rules when writing thread's code):

Thus he is fully aware that this is not a general concept, but only his own, "enforced" by himself.
