/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d is a directory so prominently used that you do not want to repeat the line in every spec if possible. So you put it in a prominent package instead.
There are other similar prominent directories.
Second, container installations (chroot) may have no init system at all installed in them (because of minimalism), so to satisfy the prior desire, the directory has landed in filesystem.rpm instead.
Ah, but these containers have pkgs with tmpfiles but nothing processes them? Whatever ... Olaf
