We are not talking about changing the language definitions, we are
talking about installing the ones provided by tree-sitter.  The use
case you mention is akin to your wanting to modify librsvg -- in which
case you'd need to start by installing Rust.

Windows snapshots are provided as a replacement for the GNU/Linux
distros, which are not very widespread on Windows, if they exist at
all.  If Emacs installations could be downloaded from, say, the MS
store, I doubt if we'd bother providing binaries.
