errpt in Secure by Default SBD

we installed AIX 7.1 in "Secure by default" mode.
We noticed that errpt command is not present after SbD installation.
We know it can be added by installing "bos.sysmgt.serv_aid" fileset but
we wonder if "errpt" should not be the part of standard SdB
installation.

    "System Management Software for Secure by Default"
