It makes it less likely that other similar situations will arise and that
there will be need to add additional --disable-thingy switches. Yes, it
isn't foolproof, but it's one less potential way for the host system to
corrupt /tools.

I have to disagree with this. Your way is ideologically pure, but difficult to implement. In addition, the advantages are only theoretical. What we have now works quite well. It's not broken and I don't want to fix something not broken.
