Research direction

Start with docs/source/protocol.rst lines 121-151 and compare the paragraph with the scheduler changes in #7564. Read the linked Discourse discussion for the confusion it caused, then revise the obsolete explanation so it matches current behavior and no longer suggests that workers' modules are imported by the scheduler.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
