It's not a myth.
This is true but irrelevant. They are both so hard that it doesn't matter to our body. Is granite harder than limestone? Yes, but it makes absolutely no difference if you are using either to crack an egg.

Asphalt is fine to run on. Concrete is not. It really is much harder. In my experience, running on concrete increases risk of platar fasciitis and other injuries.
This is likely confirmation bias or due to a different property of the concrete you are running on such as camber or cracks.
Run barefoot on pavement good for the joints and bones
