Coz the binaries you are producing might not be able to run on the CPU you are using to build them with. People using their mighty x86_64 beastly work station to compile EFL for their pissant little ARM phone for instance. So that needs to be catered for as well. I do that all the time, coz my pissant little embedded board takes nine hours to compile EFL. I timed it once. -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world.
