runOnMainQueueWithoutDeadlocking and all its evils.

Bearing in mind my experience dealing with code in the past that was chock full of runOnMainQueueWithoutDeadlocking calls, I can not fathom why someone who was not updating the UI would need to use this type of approach… everywhere.

Besides complete ineptitude, is there a rational reason that any one of you can think of why someone would be using this for GCD dispatches instead of just making and using their own GCD dispatch queue?

Before I start destroying the universe and changing this (in a fork), I'd like to hear the words of those much smarter than I on this subject.


But seriously, WHY?

Thank you.
