Please leave them as they are written. Thank you.

&gt; Adjectives require hyphens but nouns do not.  “thread-safety” should 
be reverted to “thread safety”.  I haven’t searched for a grammar 
reference, but you can take Wikipedia as an example: “Thread safety is a 
computer programming concept applicable in the context of multi-threaded 
programs. A piece of code is thread-safe if it functions correctly during 
simultaneous execution by multiple threads.”<br>

This appears to be more a question of personal style than a<br>
grammar rule.<br>
