Having the symlink outside the packaging is even worse than shipping it, as removing the package would then leave a dangling link. Ideally, we shouldn't be shipping (or creating) non-FHS clutter at all, unless it's absolutely, undeniably REQUIRED by this platform. In which case, we should convince them to fix their platform, and grudgingly ship the link for now.
