Why?

That is not wrong. It is accurate, even if not complete.

Like Mihail said further down the thread, the wrong thing to do is to have 
slots in the class derived from QThread and/or using moveToThread(this).

If you treat the QThread object like I said, as the object managing an 
operating system resource (the thread), not the work to be done, you're fine.
