Why does the new Laravel configuration run the cache step during runtime instead of build time?

[greg]

Ah, It would be because the secret APP_KEY (which is needed to make the cache) isn’t available at build-time. It’s NULL. And so that would result in errors/exceptions. So those :cache commands need to be run when APP_KEY is available, which is at run-time.
