It is written:

"If an implementation supports multiple threads, then parameterize
must not change the associated values of any parameters in any thread
other than the current thread and threads created inside <body>."

It's the last part that I got wrong: I incorrectly assumed it may
_not_ influence the values in threads created inside <body>.

Is this correct?
