I'm sorry but you are betraying a myopic view here. Concurrency as a computer science concept has existed at least since the existence of co-routines which have been around for 60+ years. Parallelism as a concept has also existed for about as long. I find it fascinating that you take issue with "concurrency" when that one is the older concept in the engineering zeitgeist. If anything, parallelism is the odd one because it only became sounding average engineers started thinking about when consumer CPUs started becoming multi threaded.
