I also think so.
However, in the case of fmtutil-sys, because of

line 595 of runscript.tlu:
  ARGV = {[0]=BINDIR..'/fmtutil.exe', 'fmtutil', argline}

and

line 649 of runscript.tlu:
  table.insert(ARGV, argline) -- pass through original arguments

the command

fmtutil --byfmt jadetex --byfmt jadetex

is actually executed and  it works.
Note the doubled arguments.

It seems that some cleanups are necessary in the runscript.tlu.

Thanks,
Akira
