Okay, that's true, but especially in Erlang's BEAM VM the mutable state's access is serialized / centralized. An actor's state is not a globally modifiable volatile variable a la the C/C++ ones.

Yes.

Though I don't think anyone ever suggested the actor model (or Erlang) was doing C/C++ craziness.
