Is it possible to deploy an arbitrary Worker using Workers for Platforms?

The title may sound unclear, so that I will give more context.
Recently, I've made an application that generates a React App, compiles it using Cloudflare Containers, and deploys it to a dispatch using Workers for Platforms(WfP). containers-betaCan I create a worker from a Cloudflare Container?

But now I'm unsure what WfP can and cannot do. But as you can see in both screenshots, it looks like I must use dispatcher bind to call the script I deployed. I was able to render the React app as expected, but I needed to do it inside my own worker by creating a new route nd returning my script:

app.all("/theme/live/:id/*", async (c) => {
  const id = c.req.param("id");

  try {
    const deployedWorker = c.env.DISPATCHER.get(storeId);

    [...]

    const forwardedRequest = ...

    const response = await deployedWorker.fetch(forwardedRequest);

    return response;
  } catch (deployError) {
    [...]
  }
});

app.all("/theme/live/:id/*", async (c) => {
  const id = c.req.param("id");

  try {
    const deployedWorker = c.env.DISPATCHER.get(storeId);

    [...]

    const forwardedRequest = ...

    const response = await deployedWorker.fetch(forwardedRequest);

    return response;
  } catch (deployError) {
    [...]
  }
});

But taking a look at Cloudflare for SaaS, seems like I'm missing something because If I can set custom domain for my users it implies that I can deploy stuff for my users, and in my case I would like to deploy a whole React App bundle (a single HTML and JS file)

So to recapitulate, I want to deploy my bundle as a different service, because it will be my customer App, so I would like to deploy it without depending of my own Worker or something like that like by calling a dispatch bind. It should be a different App, with its own domain (or a subdomain of my domain for free plans, etc)

I'm pretty sure it is possible to do with Cloudflare, I just don't know how the WfP product works, and by reading the docs, I also didn't understand it
