 * The presence of this annotation indicates that the author believes the class is not thread-safe.
 * The absence of this annotation does not indicate that the class is thread-safe, instead this annotation is for
 * cases where a naïve assumption could be easily made that the class is thread-safe. In general, it is a bad plan
 * to assume a class is thread safe without good reason.
