No, as mentioned - The name is arbitrary, but as the ct-ng version we're
currently using hardcodes it as sys-root, then we either need to use
sys-root or add symlinks if we want ct-ng to install directly into
HOST_DIR/usr to get BR's and ct-ng's idea of $tuple/sys-root to match.

Ok, good.

Yeah. Until very recently noone really cared as STAGING_DIR used to be
directly in output/.

Yes, but that's OK. This change was just to get the ct-ng toolchain to
behave more similar to the internal one.
