If the existing guidelines cover this (which they do), then why add
it? Furthermore whatever is true for the data bits in this regards is
mostly true for firmwares/fonts etc. as well. and we've tried to keep
the specification rather clean from buildsystem or procedures topics,
the addition is perhaps better made in the review guidelines.

Anything for the packaging guidelines needs to be voted upon. See also
the neutral clarification on the --buildroot which had to be removed
because it was suggested after the voting.

But, as said, this probably just needs to be a clarification
elsewhere.
