Isn't it enough to set R_COMPILE_AND_INSTALL_PACKAGES=never
?
The {tic} package now passes .Platform$pkgType
as the type
argument -- I'm guessing this will be "win.binary"
on Windows. Maybe this is something {remotes} and/or {pak} could do by default?

Too many users have problems with compiling packages from source, and actually don't need this functionality.
