I can't exactly read Yaakov's brain, but to me the idea here is to
keep the changes for the *user* small and working even after an
update, rather than following the guidelines slavishly.

rsh-server is your package.

tftp-server *explicitely* installes into /usr/sbin aka --sbindir.

sshd is installed into sbindir as well, btw., and not only on Cygwin,
but upstream.

Looks like there should nothing change, in fact.
