As mentioned above the purpose of this method is to tell MSC that +*when it is starting a service, that the service did not complete startup*+. Otherwise, once the start method called by MSC returns, the service is started

Put another way this is the chain of events that should happen for it to work

MSC Thread X:
 
MSC decides to start a service -> MSC calls your service.start() -> { 
       /* Not done yet! */ ctx.asynchronous(); 
        passToSomeOtherThread(ctx); 
        return;
}
 
SomeOtherThread: {
    doStuff();
    /* Tell MSC I am done */ ctx.complete();
}
