Right, the only problem is that folks like Drepper of Red Hat would rather commit suicide than accept the notion of pthread.h implementable in terms of <thread>. See the comedy at posix-c++-sg.
This is not a good idea for maintenance reasons, because it still leaves us with two separate implementations, one for POSIX, one for pthreads-over-C++ (which is currently a synonym for Windows.)
