Well, if making them generally available does not mean extra problems, I would 
do it, though I do not know how to do it😉. What do we need to do to make them 
general?

They are more specialized than las2las and las2txt indeed but my guess is that 
“general public” will also find them useful. Maybe similar level of 
specialization as las2ogr?

Las2pg will be used by people that want to use pgpointcloud but want to create 
custom in-database blocks (different blocking than PDAL) so my guess (and hope) 
is that it will be used by some folks that want something faster than las2txt 
and ‘copy from text’ when importing data into postgresql

Las2col is for anyone wanting to try a column store (MonetDB) to handle point 
clouds and it is quite fast since it has automatic parallelization of queries…

They are pretty specialized, and I don't know that they need to be generally 
available. Oscar?
