Once again, famous last words. Emacs currently has no dependencies other than system libraries: terminfo/termcap/curses. As a result, it builds out of the box on AIX with the XL C compiler. It does not depend on gnutls, HarfBuzz, Cairo, or even libraries that really are available everywhere such as XCB. Why require tree-sitter?
