Why isn't PerfViewCollect available?

Hi, I just found PerfView and it is really nice, thanks for your work on it! We gathered a WPR collection and WPT struggled with it but PerfView worked really well.

I'm in the process of changing a lot of our docs to use PerfView instead of WPT and I'm curious about this statement:

a complete .NET Runtime on it, which is what PerfView needs to run [...] PerfViewCollect is a version of PerfView that has been stripped of its GUI (it only does collection), and built using the .NET Core runtime [...] Currently we don't create a binary distribution of PerfViewCollect, it must be built from the source code

I was just curious why PerfViewCollect isn't built and available with PerfView releases? Thanks
