That's a good point - this isn't a Lambda-specific thing and you'd see it anywhere where people are executing code in shared spaces.
I'm just highlighting why for our use case - where we built a platform specifically for people to execute what code they want - we had to be aggressive about isolating execution environments from one another. Lambda just didn't let us have the isolation we needed.
An attacker who can execute arbitrary code would be a big problem in any execution context - wouldn't say this is a Lambda specific problem.

Gotcha, yeah that's true.
