The live images MUST contain the rpm executable because their contents are
installed to disk (HDD/SSD/whatever) when installing the live image, and at
that point, rpm is needed to update the system.
There are also use cases where users want to install some package into the
transient overlay in RAM, or even just run some rpm -q query on the running
live image.
