True. That's how it is handled on the batch side. Not sure about this
behavior though. If a user sets a default parallelism but uses operators with
`parallelism > defaultParallelism` this would fail, right? The rational behind
this is probably to maximize the parallelism for all operators and not have
operators with exceptional high parallelism.
