-class SafeThreadPoolExecutor(ThreadPoolExecutor):

+class SafeThreadPoolExecutor:
+    """
+    A thread pool executor that collects all AsyncResult objects and waits for their completion.
+
+    Example Usage:
+
+    with SafeThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=len(duthosts)) as executor:
+        for duthost in duthosts:
+            executor.submit(example_func, duthost, localhost)
 
-    Everytime we submit a task, it will store the feature in self.features
-    On the __exit__ function, it will wait all the tasks to be finished,
-    And check any exceptions that are raised during the task executing
+    Behavior Summary:
+      1. On instantiation, starts `max_workers` threads via ThreadPool.
+      2. Each thread runs the submitted function (e.g., `example_func(arg1, arg2)`) in parallel.
+      3. When the `with` block scope ends, execution moves to `__exit__`, where it blocks on each `AsyncResult.get()`
+         in turn to wait for all tasks to finish.
+      4. If all threads succeed without raising, the pool is shut down cleanly.
+      5. If any thread raises an exception, `.get()` re-raises that exception in the main thread.
