Concurrency is mostly a higher level abstraction than the ISA, they don't care what the stack pointer is pointing to or what the return address is. Actually implementing concurrency efficiently is a solved problem, both in the trivial (stack less) and more complex (stackful) cases.

And that's sort of my point, concurrency primitives are really easy to define and implement but pretty hard to use by programmers up the stack.
