Can you directly pass the state that funcA cares about as an explicit parameter?

I think we need to understand what you're trying to do in context.
Tell us more why you want to do what you're doing.  Maybe the approach
you're taking is correct, or maybe there's an easier way to accomplish
what you're trying to do.
