Spawned threads inheriting the posix thread name by default is likely net positive, but it can sometimes lead to you chasing your tail wondering why your thread has gone rogue in systrace when it wasn’t your thread at all.

Weird that this wasn't anticipated by appending '(child)' to the inherited name or something

POSIX doesn't have thread names. It's a Linux (and maybe BSD) ism and they're limited to 16 bytes or so, so appending anything unlikely to turn out well...
