please read the docs for the scheduler .... group_names is meant as a way to allow sending tasks to a (or more) specific workers.
Any task queued without the group_name parameter gets a default of 'main', that indeed is included in the default value of group_names of the scheduler. Of course, given that you "want to play" with group_name(s) means that if you change the defaults you then need to pass sensible arguments to make your tasks eligible of being processed..............e.g. you use group_names = ['foo', 'bar', 'baz'] in the Scheduler istantiation and use either 'foo' or 'bar' or 'baz' queuing tasks.
