Almost. If each thread were an Actor (I think that's what you're saying?) then that would structure the code around each type of work e.g. here is the code for all the database operations. That's not a very useful way to group things for the developer. The way I wrote it above, the code is structured around a single activity across all the types of work it has to do.
