Updating basictex did not trigger format rebuild

Norbert,
OK, I'll rebuild Basic TeX. Before starting, I decided to try an experiment. I made BasicTeX-2019 my default TeX Distribution and then ran "sudo tlmgr paper a4". As the console output below says, formats were rebuilt. Why didn't this operation consult
$opt_fmt = $localtlpdb->option("create_formats");
before rebuilding the formats, like tlmgr does when updating?
