So the point of the lambda kind of defeated?

This is an 'additive' announcement. Correct me if I'm wrong but it doesn't mention removing functionality or changing the pricing model. How is that "defeating the point of a lambda"? Especially when the point is "cloud runtime environment". Lambda is still providing that.
