To me that situation seems like it should be modeled as a queue.

Fair point, however ...

I think it would be very worthwhile in this discussion to figure out at
what point we feel that a customer ought to opt for a queue rather than
a message group.

... I think one of the criteria is how many groups there are and how dynamic the set of groups is.

In this example it might be that there are lots and lots of objects, but only a few processing 'engines'. Further, the exact set of objects might be dynamic. I don't want to have to tie the processing engines to specific queues for each object, I want them to adapt to the changing system.
