  The whole point of the earlier comments is that it is preferable to use a package manager instead of using a browser to download binaries.

But there are package managers for Windows, aren't there? Microsoft even has its own app store, that you need to use to install applications such as Windows Terminal. People often install software on Linux and macOS by downloading installers using a browser. In fact, that's how non-bleeding edge versions of Xcode are installed.
