This should be your hint that UNIX certification is more of a box-checking exercise than a real test of functionality. UUCP has been functionally obsolete since at least the mid-1990s; it's surprising that macOS even bothers shipping its binaries, and it's exceptionally silly that UNIX certification requires it to be present and installed in /usr/local.
It doesn't look like the certification requires those UUCP binaries to be in /usr/local, that's just where you have to put them on macOS to be able to `chmod +s` them, which is what the certification actually requires. Less arbitrary, but even more clearly obsolete and bad practice for a modern OS.
