Ah yes, but it is not good like that. If we call tlmgr paper ...
then the call to fmtutil-sys --all should, well, still be necessary.
I will check what tlgmr paper letter is calling. But you are right,

I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse,
and about to die from asphyxiation in deep space that I
really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I
was young.'
