  Something that might help when considering `address` vs `thread_id`, is to notice that if you receive an SMS on Android from any contact (ie. Mom/Dad) who share a phone number, Google/Android will just pick one and the messages will go there.
  
  In other words, it may no even be possible to have two different `thread_id`'s for the same `address`, so the `thread_id` is really only necessary for fetching messages. In the GSConnect UI, new incoming messages (whether for a new or existing conversation) are "routed" by `address`, not by `thread_id`, and I haven't found a situation where that breaks yet.
