Why doesn't Schema::getFacadeAccessor return a string?

[CyberiaResurrection]

• Laravel Version: 5.8.34
• PHP Version: 7.2.21
• Database Driver & Version: N/A

Description:

Per #25525 and implied by \Illuminate\Support\Facades\Facade::swap() (as below),

    public static function swap($instance)
    {
        static::$resolvedInstance[static::getFacadeAccessor()] = $instance;

        if (isset(static::$app)) {
            static::$app->instance(static::getFacadeAccessor(), $instance);
        }
    }

Why does \Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema return a schema Builder rather than a string, like the vast bulk, if not all, of the other defined facade classes in the core framework?

Steps To Reproduce:
