Why doesn't NormalLibraryTarget clean up the library?

Why doesn't NormalProgramTarget provide an all:: target?

i.e., I would think that NormalLibraryTarget should be as follows:

###############################################################################

/*
 * NormalLibraryTarget - generate rules to create a library.
 */
#ifndef NormalLibraryTarget
#define NormalLibraryTarget(libname,objlist)				@@\
AllTarget(lib/**/libname.a)						@@\
                                                                        @@\
lib/**/libname.a: objlist						@@\

	$(AR) $@ objlist						@@\
	$(RANLIB) $@							@@\
									@@\
clean::									@@\
	$(RM) lib/**/libname.a
#endif /* NormalLibraryTarget */

###############################################################################

and I would think that NormalProgramTarget should be as follows:

###############################################################################

/*
 * NormalProgramTarget - generate rules to compile and link the indicated
 * program; since it does not use any default object files, it may be used for
 * multiple programs in the same Imakefile.
