Yes, I understand this point.

What I mean is: Can you describe, concretely, when you personally are
running multiple Emacs sessions at once, or abruptly killing an Emacs
process?

I ask just to make sure I have at least one concrete example of the kind
of usage should be supported.  Otherwise we might come up with a
solution that doesn't actually work for you.

Plus, since such usage seems to be considered uncommon, a concrete
example will further support your point.
