since only one instance of the cobra root command exists in production branch, this means that only one copy of the caddy app can be running within a process at a time. along with that, a run of the command leaves command state dirty, which could have unintended consequences.
this is a major problem in being able to properly test caddy through the command wrapper.
in general - having such global state is a code smell, and we should strive to remove them from the codebase when possible
