Yes indeed this is reason enough for this stage of Harmony VM development.
Taken to the limit, "run any app RI is able to run" means cloning the RI.
At some point in the future we will need to revisit the above rule but its

BTW, the work balancing system was introduced to workaround missing
high priority threads in VM. IMHO, a high priority finalizer thread
can do the job.
