Arch also does it. The first time I encountered this was when I accidentally deleted my EFI partition and was unable to boot. Boot into live media, chroot, run grub-install and rejoice.

Yeah as an Arch user I've used it a few times where an pacman -Syu has caused something to break and it's pretty easy to chroot into your system and fix the broken package.
