+Each worker has a **name** — its supervisor id and the broker `workerName` it
+registers under. Pass `--name` on `supervisor add` (or `work`) to set it;
+omit it and one is auto-generated as `‹host›-‹profile›-‹random›`, so you can
+run **several instances of the same profile** and they stay distinct
+end-to-end (status, logs, and at the broker). `restart`/`remove` accept either
+a worker id **or** a profile name — targeting a profile affects *every*
+instance of it.
+
 Each worker takes the **same flags as `nano work`** (`--max-parallel`,
 `--job-timeout`, `--lock-grace`, `--poll-timeout`, `--sandbox`/`--image`,
 `--job-type`, `--env`, `--arg`, …); they are forwarded verbatim to the spawned
