> there's thankfully no such thing as an Android Studio account

I meant Google Account. Isn't a google account necessary for anything on developer.android.com? Sorry if I am wrong. Any url on that domain used to redirect me to a Google Login page.

Well, atleast you have to accept a Google TOS.

A google account is not required for using the android SDK.

You have to agree with the TOS if you download the prebuilt SDK from google, yes. Building the SDK from source is unfortunately quite hard but Debian has made some progress with this.
