 Ideally, there would be three possible return values:

 1. A value that indicates that no cron is being performed

 2. A value that indicates that a WP_CRON is being performed

 3. A value that indicates that a cron is being performed via the CLI

 This would mostly be helpful for logging purposes. For example, some hosts
 use a setup in which crons are run by a different user than normal
 (apache, root, www-data, etc), which can affect things like your
 environment variables and file permissions.

 Even though it's not strictly necessary, it would be helpful to have it as
 an option.
