Is there ever a need for multiple Cluster instances? #1845

Hello, I am reviewing some code at new job involving usage of new require('ioredis').Cluster() - and am noticing that previous author has created several instances of this in the same application runtime.. but per my knowledge there should only ever be a need for a single instance... correct?

A single instance should be enough in a typical web application.
