Why is that?

"make bootstrap" isn't for building from a pristine tree, that's not
its purpose.  Perhaps we want such a Make target, but then let's not
overload "bootstrap" with such an additional semantics, let's have a
separate target for that.  Then we will have solved the tension simply
and painlessly.
