I meant to express the layers of abstraction feel strange to me in a typical setup.
A typical setup today looks like:
nginx -> puma/unicorn/gunicorn/etc -> your code
With cgi that middle layer is gone. It's just:
nginx -> your code
The layer reduction is nice when it comes to things like debugging. You don't have to guess if the middle server is removing a header, failing to forward a header, etc.

It's obvious who does that with cgi.
