Research direction

Start with the README passage quoted in the issue and compare its claim with the Temporal documentation passage. Confirm which worker and task-queue registration behavior applies, then update the README so the guidance is accurate and verify that the conflicting statements are resolved.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hi!

The readme says:

By only registering a subset of your workflows/activities with a given worker you can split processing across as many workers as you need.

However, the temporal docs say this:

All Workers listening to a given Task Queue must have identical registrations of Activities and/or Workflows.

I'm wondering if the README here needs to be updated, or if I'm missing some internal behavior of this gem or Temporal itself?
