Waiting for a process spawned by dcli exec

Given this script.sh file:

sleep 100

Why does dcli exec -- ./script.sh not block until sleep finishes? I'm not actually intending to use sleep in my script but this reflects the problem I'm facing (I'm actually calling an interactive process)

I initially thought that it had to do with spawn not blocking but I've failed to reproduce it using a minimal example (execution waits until sleep returns):

// app.js , run it using 'node app.js'
const spawn = require('child_process').spawn

const child = spawn('sleep',['10'], {
    stdio: 'inherit',
    shell: true
})

child.on('exit', c => console.log(c))
