Also note that even some popular desktop APIs that in practice expose the "hardware" thread count, choose not to call it that way. For example, Qt calls it the "ideal" thread count. http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qthread.html#idealThreadCount
IMO this suggests that we're not the only ones feeling uncomfortable about committing to "hardware thread count" as being forever a well-defined and useful thing to expose to applications.
