This make target would most likely very seldom used by developers; in in case of our internal build/deploy/test  pipelines where we might use it,  we always build scratch, so it would not be a big issue there.
But I understand your general concerns; maybe it is better to go the way David suggested, and have more control by configure what do to exactly.
