IMO, it’s not just about time. For bare bones package managers when there’s no need to build the server, this saves a few GB.
of time saved by not building all of PG didn't justify the maintenance
effort to keep the build scripts working for that case

Years ago we had support for client-only builds on at least some
toolchains (MSVC at least, not sure about elsewhere). That got
dropped though. I believe the prevailing opinion was that the amount
of time saved by not building all of PG didn't justify the maintenance
effort to keep the build scripts working for that case. I think that
that argument hasn't lost its force, so we'd be likely to reject any
such proposal.
