When reading the official SQLAlchemy documentation, I found the example 
below:

### this is the **wrong way to do it** ###

class ThingOne(object):
    def go(self):
        session = Session()
        try:
            session.query(FooBar).update({"x": 5})
            session.commit()
        except:
            session.rollback()
            raise

class ThingTwo(object):
    def go(self):
        session = Session()
        try:
            session.query(Widget).update({"q": 18})
            session.commit()
        except:
            session.rollback()
            raise

def run_my_program():
    ThingOne().go()
    ThingTwo().go()

I don't really understand the drawbacks for this pattern. Actually I can 
think of one major ADVANTAGE to this: in a multi-threading context, this 
pattern can ensure that each session instance is a local variable to the 
function that actually uses it.

Could someone enlighten me by giving some potential drawbacks for the 
example above? Thanks.
