Sure.  For me, there are a few additional sources of motivation:

- shallow clone is a bit of a thorny feature, so I like having the
  indication of which source files are interacting with it

- this will give us a good place to put any overview documentation on
  the shallow API

It's probably worth a mention of the builtin.h part here.

(By the way, I wouldn't be against propagating that to the callers,
to better match what https://include-what-you-use.org/ would enforce.)
