Whether it should be is a good question.

There's no /etc/bash_logout file under Debian, etc. but /etc/skel/.bash_logout and ~/.bash_logout also have the same clear screen code.

Is (or was) /etc/bash.bash_logout that did this in the bash sources or under Fedora, which is the Linux basis for some Cygwin approaches, behaviour, and conventions?



$ cygcheck -l base-files |grep logout
/etc/defaults/etc/bash.bash_logout

the defaults is copied as
   /etc/bash.bash_logout
only if it was not modified.

The file is there by at least 2016, so not a new implementation
