Helpful chat from the call:
LG: Why not re-executing the offchain worker for 3’ and 4’, instead of just 5?
Tomasz Drwięga: It depends on the use cases, but yeah we want to enable that in Offchain Workers 2.0
There is even more to this, cause we only run OCW when you are fully synced, and there are use cases where you would like to run OCW for EVERY imported block.
Our current approach is that offchain-workers are triggering some "side-effects" and most likely you don't want these side effects to be triggered multiple times (re-org case). But as I mentioned, we want that to be configurable in the future (hopefully near)
