Well I cared because I thought garbage collection would only happen

this as a service it'll run for months at a time without ending. So I
thought I was going to have heaps of Queues hanging out in memory,
unreferenced and unloved. It seemed like bad practice so I wanted to
get out ahead of it.
Even if GC worked that way it wouldn't matter, if you use just one queue
per type of task. That number should be a small constant so the memory
consumption is small.
That's basically how _non_-garbage-collected languages work! :-)
