Presumably for the same reason that ML models seem to self-download to god knows where instead of giving you a URL to a download link and telling you where to place the file? Or those awful programs that give you a stub when you try to download the app, only to download the actual payload to, again, god-knows-where. Or even worse, packaging your app in a docker container! Seriously people, give a CURL-compatible URL to your actual payload and then get the hell out of the way
