This is similar in spirit to #33953 (which ultimately was only applied to 8.x via #33984 )
I've use cases where I want to be able to re-use Builder/Grammar without having to extend them, as they might already be extended from other packages and thus makes compositing via replacing very hard.
By having those method public, they can be easier re-used from the outside. Some rational of this is explained in an issue over at staudenmeir/laravel-upsert#21 (comment) about issues I faced using a package providing upsert, and using a different approach to implement this.
Thanks!
