Ah, but when people have raised this exact issue before (that tcbuild and
'make tinderbox' build different things), you have blown them off repeatedly.

Agreed on that front.

No, it is very developer friendly as it Just Works(tm) as a single command

albeit doing quite a bit of duplicate work for platforms like arm in the
process).
