No, it's implied that you're going to use some sort of async runtime with it... said runtime can be simple real threads, a thread pool or virtual threads and there are implementations for all of them. And even then, it's super easy to start a new real thread in rust, around any async runtime.

While true, this isn’t what I’m talking about: Rust had _built in_ green threads at one point, the same as Go [1].
