On that note, do you mind helping me understand something I haven't been able to glean from Microsoft's docs? Does Orleans give you a way to globally address a thread?

With Durable Objects, two clients on either side of the world can both request a websocket connection to an object with the same unique identifier, and all the bytes from those clients will land in one single process somewhere inside a CloudFlare data centre.

I am pretty sure the answer is yes, but the docs seem a bit less direct than CloudFlare's web focused use cases.
