I understand it is a choice. I just say it's a bad choice, a.k.a tool standing 
in a
way of the user (when something not planned by tool developers must be done,
as is usually the case with builds of complex projects).

Though in case of Meson this be compensated if build system can be easily
extended from Python modules (no idea if this is the case or not).
