I’m looking through the Launcher code and noticed it disables osquery’s built in watchdog. Why is this?

It's a bit before my time, but IIRC they fight. They're both trying to start osquery and manage it's state.

I don’t see anything similar implemented in Launcher. So this means there is no watchdog when using Launcher?

Correct. Launcher had not implemented that.
There's an old issue somewhere.
Sometime it would be interesting to revisit enabling it. But there's a project there.
