Exactly; that's the entire definition of intermediate files: if the
target is mentioned _explicitly_ somewhere in the makefile (as a target
or prerequisite) then it can't be intermediate.
If make infers a target and it is not mentioned explicitly anywhere else
in the makefile, then it's considered an intermediate file.
