Not sure I can see why that would be true.
ISTM that the workers need to be restricted in various ways from a
full-functioned master. If the workers can do things that conflict
with the master and/or each other, we're going to have all kinds of
hurt.
The key is going to be deciding what the restrictions are and then
working out how to enforce them.
