Another red flag. I cannot take any project serious that has this on its documentation.

I guess you don’t think the Rust programming language is a serious project, then?
My issue is the bypassing of the systems package manager. Doing so will result on files spread somewhere over the system. How do you uninstall such thing properly? How do you update (or even know) it's dependencies? Will it break because I uninstall or update one of it's dependencies?
Linux has a very good package management for many years. I see absolute no reason to break this by creating shell installers.
You prefer that they wrap it in an .msi file and put it on that same website? What do you think the advantages of that are?
