you are right, it isn't technically needed. this only became the way-of-doing in order to have a rebuild forced, back in the old days. but now with ci train, you are right we should be able to have an empty commit rebuild since its in our control.
I'm going to start trying the empty commit method. I'll just double check with the release team in case there was some other non-obvious reason we were bumping.
