The parallelism features of Go are a side-effect of the concurrency features, which are far more about how you structure your code than about how it runs. Go's main feature is what it removes. I got stuck with C for a long time because nothing better with the same simplicity came along. Languages march forward with increasing complexity while offering very little in return for it. Go is a reaction to that and a solution to that problem.
