With old buildings, you could click "run" on every process housed in that building regardless of whether citizens were available to help. So your first stone mine could run 4 processes, 40 units of stone each time you visited it.
Nowadays, when your city is brand new and underpopulated, it is extremely slow to get going because you can only run 1 process at a time by hand, reducing your output by about 4 times for mines and 8 times for other buildings.
Allowing hand-run processes to count for either 4-8 production lines OR the actual number of workers present, whichever is greater, would massively speed up that phase of your city building when you're doing most of the work yourself or waiting a long time for people to immigrate.
Obviously, that's the first phase of the game most people experience so making it less painful (at least no more than how it used to be) would be a gift to them.
