I think this is related to the C++ standard library implementation.

Using pthread in C, for example, TBB is not required.

Not sure about C11 threads, but I have always thought that GLIBC just uses pthread under the hood.

I don't know the details since I'm mainly a windows dev, but when porting to linux, TBB has always been a huge pain in the ass since it's a suddenly additionally required dependency by gcc. Using C++ and std::thread.
