I disagree on a technical basis that it should be Wine's job to deal with
that(and thus essentially clone the functionality of taskset).

Two points:
1) This is not a Wine-specific problem. There can be Linux apps that are broken
in the same way too. As such Wine is the wrong place to deal with the problem
2) Wine leaves the thread scheduling to the Operating System. It deliberately
doesn't care about where each thread runs, so Windows apps in Wine behave like
normal Linux(MacOS, *BSD, ...) apps.

There's obviously a usability issue now. Wine is the wrong place to fix this,
and distributions usually don't care(because they are Windows apps, and Linux
apps with the same problem are rare, or open source and thus fixable).
