Debugging a kernel is the only reason I can think of for wanting a
vmlinux but that feat is beyond the scope of LPIC-2...and anyone
wanting to debug a kernel would know how to compile their own.

The statement might also be a reference to knowing the kernels on
non-x86 systems but we dropped that expectation many years ago.
