No threads:
(ancestors (class (fn[])))
-> #{java.lang.Runnable java.io.Serializable clojure.lang.AFn
clojure.lang.Obj java.lang.Object clojure.lang.Fn
clojure.lang.AFunction clojure.lang.IObj clojure.lang.IFn
java.util.concurrent.Callable clojure.lang.IMeta java.util.Comparator}
What you are referring to is the fact that functions implement
Callable and Runnable, so that they can trivially play nice with Java
threads if you need them to.
