"We’d like to initialise our Vec in parallel, otherwise we’d have to wait for the main thread to fill the entire Vec with a placeholder value only to then have our threads overwrite those placeholder values."
Talk about overengineering :P Multithreaded vector initialisation instead of just...skipping it?
That sentence is specifically talking about not initializing with a placeholder value, and instead letting it write over uninitialized values.
