Sorry, I think you’re misunderstanding.

Highly concurrent code need not execute in parallel. Concurrency enables parallelism; concurrency does NOT mandate parallelism.

On top of that, it actually is possible in JavaScript environments like Node.js to write code that can, in fact, run in parallel.

But those parallel executions are running their own event queues.
