Sorry if where I replied made this confusing, I wasn't really talking about you nor even did I mean it as a personal thing against Jabbles who did the actual "calling out" of mixing threads and goroutines.
As I mentioned, knowing the difference is actually a good thing so your post is really helpful. My point is just that the two concepts are so intertwined and overlapping that I think it is silly for someone to correct someone's terminology on this (as Jabbles did, though I admit I share some of his(?) other concerns with the OP), particularly in cases where it is clear the person is pretty familiar with goroutines and how they operate.
