Wouldn't that mean that every checkout on such a machine fails, because
simfactory would unconditionally add these thorns to the thornlist,
regardless of whether they are actually present or not?

What you describe would work for checkouts of the complete Einstein
toolkit thornlist, but it would break "minimal" thornlists, and
configurations outside of the ET entirely.
