Andrew: This is the history reason. Before, Edk2 BaseTools included the binary Windows tools in BaseTools\Bin\Win32. There is no BaseTools/BinWrappers/WindowsLike directory.
When migrate BaseTools Windows tools from binary to source build, Edk2 BaseTools C source is still compiled to BaseTools\Bin\Win32 directory. Because BaseTools\Bin\Win32 is set into system PATH env, there is no requirement to add their wrapper scripts in BaseTools/BinWrappers/WindowsLike directory.
