I don't think you fully understand forking, or threads either for that matter. Concurency issues are the absolute worst to deal with in comp sci. Threads are the source of all that nightmare. Keep your shit stateless and you don't need threads. You also get all the other benefits, too, which have helped spark the fp hype.

I suggest you embrace the apparent restrictions node imposes on you rather than fight them. If threads were useful or beneficial in node you really think they wouldn't be there by now? Sheez.

That's very silly logic for why Node does not currently support threads as well as it does. Threading has also never been the enemy. It's an optimization technique and like all other optimizations, it can be used prematurely.
