Scott, Historically, if I remember correctly, the NOOPT builds were added to support Nt32Pkg/EmulatorPkg. “Back in the day” a NOOPT build would not generally fit in a ROM. But given folks could be building an option ROM, shell, OS loader that don’t have size constraints I think you are right in pointing out the NOOPT builds should be in all the supported tool chains.
