As the processes are releasing the DB locks, people wouldn't necessarily notice unless they are looking for the processes.
The only reason I did is because I automated the "stop server, run calibre, restart server" routine when I need to do some DB maintenance and it relies on monitoring the processes to trigger some steps.
so if people are not looking they might have a couple of zombie processes running and, if they're not opening and closing calibre too often and restart their machines somewhat regularly, they may not notice any adverse effects.

I just tested this on my desktop using both x-server and wayland, calibre works as expected. My suggestion is to make sure that you do not have system tray enabled in Preferences--look&feel.
