You're still missing the point. We all understand that definition. We're just saying that it is incorrect use of the word "concurrent". Does that make sense? The word "concurrent" means things happening at the same time. It's stupid for programmers to redefine it to mean things not happening at the same time.

execution = if concurrency then parallelism else multitasking

Simple. Easy. But it doesn't confuse my boss or make everyone angry.

concurrency = if concurrency then concurrency else concurrency

Now this I can work with.
