Rust doesn't have any built-in concurrency in the usual sense either (well, except for thread-locals and atomic intrinsics). What it provides is a few simple features (uniqueness and safe references) that allow programs like kernels to create their own safe, race-free abstractions. Instead of providing features directly ("scenario solving"), Rust's concurrency features are more like building blocks to help libraries build the features they need.
