I wonder how this impacts (positively) Cloudflare Workers/Fly.io-style isolation (both use very different isolation mechanisms I guess). Perhaps, thinking out loud, CF Workers had the right level of isolation to begin with (i.e. pure V8 isolation)?

Fly uses Firecracker micro VMs rather than V8 isolates. Two of the engineers behind both services had a friendly discussion about it a few years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31759170
