No worry. I think I see where you are going. Gradle doesn't know and doesn't care what is the default output directory for project or for module. It only adds this information to its Idea model if it is told that the output location should be customized. That's all what is needed to generate IDEA project and module files offline or to build a model that will be used through toolingApi to synchronize Gradle project with IntelliJ's project.
