Since #49094, the docstring of nthreads has been incorrect. It currently states that

The threads in default have id numbers 1:nthreads(:default).

whereas that is no longer true:

julia> filter(i -> Threads.threadpool(i) == :interactive, 1:Threads.maxthreadid())
3-element Vector{Int64}:
 1
 2
 3

julia> filter(i -> Threads.threadpool(i) == :default, 1:Threads.maxthreadid())
6-element Vector{Int64}:
 4
