a) curl pipe to shell

b) Download a DMG, double-click to install

These are not morally that different, the DMG installation can also do pretty much whatever, and I doubt people are picking apart the DMG to find the install script to verify that either.

I'm definitely not resuscitating that old argument here.

Just noting that people have strong opinions about the preferability of either approach.
