Haskell has green threads. Plus nowadays Java also has virtual threads.

And I bet those green threads still need an IO type of some sort to encode anything non-pure, plus usually do-syntax. Comparing merely concurrent computations to I/O-async is just weird. In fact, I suspect that even those green threads already have a "colourful" type, although I can't check right now.

Pure actions can be run in parallel with https://hackage-content.haskell.org/package/parallel/docs/Co...

Impure actions use the IO monad like always in Haskell: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.21.0.0/docs/Contr... (or the higher-level async library)

I suppose an extreme version of the function coloring argument could be that all types are colors.
