Look at it like this. A job needs to do some work on data from the library. There are two possibilities:

1) If that work is fast/simple it can be run in process like with find duplicates.

2) If it is not, then the time taken for an extra disk-to-disk copy is going to be pretty small compared to the time taken to do the actual work.
