What probably matters to youSection of the release
The remote-tools runtime is present as an on-demand chunk but its gate is off, so it never loads.
What
The machinery for running tools on another machine is fetched with a dynamic import and cached rather than being linked into the main bundle, keeping it off the startup path entirely while its gate is off.
Details
If the import throws, the failure is logged and the loader resets, so a later access retries instead of staying broken.
With no runtime loaded, there is simply no remote tool host.
Evidence

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
