> That said, I do agree with Tim that the status quo isn't broken per se: we renamed `thread` to `_thread` in Python 3 for a reason

This is not caused by `_thread` specifically, but any background thread created by C code that might invoke Python code.  The reproducer just uses the `_thread` module out of convenience.
