You might want to from your container on the edge, and separating off the work to another process makes having single-process lightweight containers more difficult (do you have multi-process container? do you sidecar the workers? etc).

So yes, I too found the architecture a bit odd. I have also seen it in https://mediasoup.org where it makes more sense to use more native workers, but carries same multi-process challenges.
