There's a big difference between Ian's statement and yours. Being able
to do have dynamic workers that can make use of static allocations is
not the same as not being able to have dynamic workers in some cases.
I think you do actually mean what Ian says. It wasn't apparent though.

Ioan (and I) are just saying, I think, that there are situations in
which people want to work with (or in some cases, need to work with) a
static allocation.
No-one is arguing that this will always be the case, or even should
mostly be the case. Just sometimes.
Ian,
