Agreed!

But read the following comment about sendSynchronousRequest in NSURLConnection.h

"The calling thread is blocked while the asynchronous loading
system performs the URL load on a thread spawned specifically for
this load request. No special threading or run loop configuration
is necessary in the calling thread in order to perform a
synchronous load. For instance, the calling thread need not be
running its run loop."

Sounds like threadsave to me!
