Why are Python samples not using tensorflow-gpu in nvcr.io/nvidia/tensorrt:19.05-py2 ?

The following is the content of requirements.txt for /workspace/tensorrt/samples/python/end_to_end_tensorflow_mnist . Looks like all the samples are not using GPUs !!

cat requirements.txt

numpy
Pillow
pycuda
requests
tensorflow

Well, the sample.py do use GPU through pycuda and trt. model.py also uses GPU through Tensorflow.
