It's hard coming up with examples that someone cannot take to the N'th
degree and make look ridiculous. Maybe impossible.

My reasoning was that I liked it. I thought it was interesting and useful
to show the number of threads that pack-objects was using. The example I
gave was to show how it could be useful to non-developers since Junio
suggested that the information was primarily of interest for git developers
and he didn't think that end users would care.

In any case, I'm not attached to the patch. I am thankful for Nicolas's
patch though, since it forced me to learn the relationship between progress
and pack_to_stdout.
