Since the scheduler does not guarantee fairness in scheduling, threads must time out and check if the example is still running. If so, just restart the scheduling, not the whole example loop which has (undesired) side effects. The bug was caused by restarting the example loop which then reset the last used timer with an old tick value, this could eventually fail (because that tick value was in the past) with the too late error message.
