Genuine question - can a process kill itself?
The kill of go-reload was to make sure background processes get cleaned up, but I suspect one of the kill or exit in the close function is superfluous.

Sure. Send the signal, the signal handler - custom or default - handles it. This works whether the signal comes from another process or its own process.
