If we do, it's not a "bootstrap".  Indeed, I almost never bootstrap
(most of my machines date back to the 2006 era, so bootstrapping takes
very long time and I'm willing to go through a fair bit of trouble to
avoid it), but some people do it more often, and there are circumstances
(such as automated regression testing) where it's almost indispensable.
