I can’t tell what your point is. I’m agreeing that managed hosting is the next evolution.
But Lambda is more than just for APIs. But if you’re worried about the “lock in” boogeyman for APIs, there are small packages for every language that lambda supports that allows you to run your standard Node/Express, C#/WebAPI, Python/Django/Flask API, etc on lambda just by changing the entry point.
Right now I’m deploying a Node/Express app to both lambda and Fargate (Serverless Docker) withoit any code changes.
