Another benefit is we can only track security vulnerabilities in the 
bundled libraries if we know that they exist. In Fedora, we declare 
bundled libraries using RPM Provides, then Red Hat Product Security can 
consider those provides when searching for affected packages. A human 
(me) has to know and add the Provides.
I didn't know about simde until the build started failing earlier this 
year.

I didn't know simdutf until:

Probably there are more bundled libraries that I don't know about!
