Yes, because whatever defaults potentially could make sense for the
build host in general doesn't make sense for the target, and for BR
builds to reproducable behaviour shouldn't change depending on something
outside our control.
You could perhaps argue for allowing it for host packages, but the
simplest/safest option is just to disallow it for all.
