Finally compared the binaries:

I don't think the Termux way worths the effort, especially in view of a possible package removing as it happened for the "pointless" github one, while the method shown here https://chess.massimilianogoi.com/articles/30-09-20-How-To-Compile-Stockfish-And-Stockfish-like-Programs-For-Android/ is likely universal and easier to do, in general.
But I have to do that it's cool as f... to compile Stockfish laid down on the couch by just tapping on my phone. Damn, these objects are really addictive, especially for me being struck by discal hernias.
