## Changes
This removes the remaining dependency on global state and unblocks work
to parallelize integration tests. As is, we can already uncomment an
integration test that had to be skipped because of other tests tainting
global state. This is no longer an issue.
Also see #595 and #606.
## Tests
* Unit and integration tests pass.
* Manually confirmed the help output is the same.
