How does this apply to not needing queues? I suppose you can rely on your language runtime to juggle the various jobs and concurrent threads (analogous to workers), but then you lose a lot of the benefits of having an explicit MQ system. If your system goes down, for example, you’ll lose all the in-progress work.

Actually, is that the point I was missing? That the benefits of an explicit MQ system are not always required, so it can be simpler to just rely on the async primitives of your language?
