I see....on the other hand, when I write request-handling code using (any web framework ever on any platform), you're suggesting that we do worry about mutexes and reentrance (not to mention, handling a single request uses multiple threads?) and that these details aren't already handled by (any web framework ever) ?

Interesting.
