Actually, this isn't pointless at all.

That could be done, but then people have to know all the various
rpmbuild switches.  It's a pain.  From a novice user experience, it's
very difficult to figure out.  You have to know that target exists,
which means reading the spec, which means understanding the spec,
which is easy for you and I but is impossible as a _starting_ point.

The purpose of the script is to give someone that just wants to build
a kernel without all the crap a very easy thing to run.  The intended
user isn't us.  It's so that we don't have to explain how to do it
over and over (or point people to a confusing wiki page) to people
that don't live in the kernel spec.
