You are right, but IMHO this is because it is not complete enough. 
Unfortunately noone knowledgeable enough seems to have the need to do 
"decent Object Pascal" programs that are supposed to run on boxes that 
don't provide  a GUI API, and thus NoGUI is not yet enhanced to feature 
an event queue in order to provide "event based programming" and things 
like TTimer, TTHread.Synchronize, TTHread.Queue and QueueAsyncCall.

Or maybe they use mse for this, which provides all this out of the box. 
(Which proves that a "decent" NoGUI programming runtime library is 
possible ;-) )
