Emacs downloads, BUILDS and installs the grammars. However Emacs also uses grammar installed by the users package manager if so available. I haven't seen any package or Emacs feature which uses prebuilts binaries. Prebuilt binaries from trusted sources are one thing, from untrusted third-parties it's a different thing.
