> UTXO is massively parallel

I don't quite understand what you mean by UTXO being parallel. Can you explain more?

My naive understanding is that the amount of unspent bitcoin you have at an address (UTXO) has to be accurate for the critical path of verifying a double spend doesn't happen, and updating multiple UTXOs in parallel seems like it would allow violating that.
