Great point. I just meant in the context of the languages I cited Rust doesn't offer similar abstractions.

It doesn't work the same way "concurrency-focused languages" generally work right now, but it does share the message-passing philosophy with them. Interestingly, I heard a rumor that Go is considering moving to 1:1 threading on Linux, which would align it with Rust's current approach, just without the memory protection capabilities of the type system (though I have no idea whether or not this is true).
