I think you are wrong. Looking at the source code of new(),
We can see the object creation:
# Create our object!
my $self = {};
bless($self, $class);
Later followed by the call to the init hook, which would have this new
object available.
# Call cgiapp_init() method, which may be implemented in the sub-class.
# Pass all constructor args forward. This will allow flexible usage
# down the line.
$self->call_hook('init', @args);
