And where and how, precisely, does "rhel require this". Having the
provenance of the source tarballs or git repos is wise and sensible,
and random tarballs with no provenance are a problem for everybody, so
that part is a good idea. But I'm not aware of it as a requirement. Is
anyone else?
It's a softer "requires", as in: RHEL is not shipping rust2rpm nor the
mass of rust-*-devel packages, so vendoring is the way.
