Hmm, I don't see the need.

I don't think they are simpler or faster.

I can't think of any, right now. The question is not whether to
execute a async in a thread or not, the question is only, in which
thread. A thread-independent wouldn't care in what thread it is
executed so it is OK to run it in the thread that has marked it.
