 /// A handle to a thread.
 ///
+/// You can use it to identify a thread (by name, for example). Most of the
+/// time, there is no need to directly create a `Thread` struct using the
+/// constructor, instead you should use a function like `spawn` to create
+/// new threads, see the docs of [`Builder`] and [`spawn`] for more.
+///
 /// # Examples
 ///
 /// ```
-/// use std::thread;
-///
-/// let handler = thread::Builder::new()
-///     .name("foo".into())
-///     .spawn(|| {
-///         let thread = thread::current();
-///         println!("thread name: {}", thread.name().unwrap());
-///     })
-///     .unwrap();
-///
-/// handler.join().unwrap();
+/// use std::thread::Builder;
+///
+/// for i in 0..5 {
+///     let thread_name = format!("thread_{}", i);
+///     Builder::new()
+///         .name(thread_name) // Now you can identify which thread panicked
+///                            // thanks to the handle's name
+///         .spawn(move || {
+///             if i == 3 {
+///                  panic!("I'm scared!!!");
+///             }
+///         })
+///         .unwrap();
+/// }
 /// ```
