Well, whatever. I remember having raised the same question in the past 
(indeed - on the 5th of February 2020 at 1:30am ;-) on the core list) 
and this is what I got... I even explicity raised the point also 
mentioned by Michael now (quoting my follow-up mail on the same day):

"OK, that would be addressed in case of inclusion under utils as well. 
Even more so, actually - users who want to recompile packages for 
whatever reason (e.g. to have debug information included as discussed 
here recently ;-) ) aren't probably interested in waiting for rebuilding 
of the IDE at all."

However, Michael refused to move it to utils at that point in time in 
order not to delay the release. ;-)
