Ask Solem <a...@opera.com> added the comment:
Since you can't specify the return code, `self.terminate` is less flexible than
`sys.exit`.
I think the original intent is clear here, the method is there for the parent
to control the child. You are of course welcome to argue otherwise.
By the way, I just read the code and noticed that it handles SystemExit well,
and supports using it to set the return code:
class X(Process):
def run(self):
if not frobulating:
raise SystemExit(255)
