So in conclusion, it seems reasonable to say that I should not worry

disagree?
Yes.
They're _still_ not global variables, they are instance variables, of
an instance which is scoped to the application lifetime.
And changing the values of them per-request is still entirely wrong,
yucky, bad design etc.
If you need an ACCEPT_CONTEXT method, than return a _different_
instance which has the mutable state, rather than smashing things in
your per-app instance and returning that.
(But yes, even if you do the thing I'm recommending against, it will
work without multiple threads stamping on each other).
