I can understand generating the SWF target for the xJS.swc (JS) build. 
The SWF targets are fairly quick.

I'm mostly hoping there's a way to avoid building the JS target for the
x.swc (SWF) build.  The JS targets take much, much longer for my
machine, at least*.  So eliminating half of those would speed up my
build tremendously.

* = Machine is definitely IOPS-bound, but perhaps just general slowness.
