Edit to say: thanks for your answer. I'll preserve the rest since I still think wheels are being reinvented here.
Bridging state across requests is not new. If "the new CGI" means more efficiently sharing state between requests, that's a really arbitrary qualifier and is not unique to WASM or serverless or anything like that. The article is myopic, it doesn't take into consideration what is established practice done over and over.
