What do Uber mean in that article when they say that Go programs "expose 8x more concurrency compared to Java microservices"? They're using the word concurrency as if it were a countable noun.

If the Java version creates 4 concurrent tasks (could be threads, fibers, futures, etc.) but the Go version creates 32 goroutines, that's 8x the concurrency.
