This is installing binaries from crates.io directly (i.e. running "cargo install ripgrep" instead of "sudo apt..." or whatever equivalent). Admittedly, this is often a suggested installation method for some built-in-Rust tools, but it's usually an option of last resort, and most people should be using their usual package manager for this.
Cargo does respect the package lock file when building a project from source (i.e. when you checkout a project, and run `cargo build` in that project directory). This happens, for example, when running builds in CI, or preparing a new release for each individual package manager.
