/opt/rustc is a symlink pointing to /opt/rustc-1.89.0, so deleting the
symlink is not necessary, as it will point to the newly built and installed
Rustc package after the build finishes. The only way the symlink would need
to be deleted and recreated is if you installed a newer version of Rustc
into, for example, /opt/rustc-1.93.1 (from the dev book). By the same
token, deleting the symlink and recreating it would not hurt, it's just not
necessary.
