There are scenarios where one would want to build a Smalltalk inside another, both sharing the same VM (i.e. testing intra-image communication or simulating a big-bang process), but of course, several hundred images running each one with its own VM is a more common case, and none of these is a "normal" use of Smalltalk currently.
