I've already read this refrain: it seems to make sense, but I cannot really justify why "build systems should only build" should be the case

What's the advantage over a build system that downloads the dependencies, but which gives you the ability to prefetch all the dependencies (so you can reliably do work without connectivity after prefetching)?
