You have to go out of your way to make something like that run in an fhs env. By that point, you've had enough time to think, even with ADHD.

It sort of does actually, at least if you don't have nix-ld enabled. A lot of programs simply won't start if they're not static-linked, and so a lot of the time if you download a third-party script, or try to install it when the `curl somesite.blah | sh`, it actually will not work. Moreover, it also is likely that it won't be properly linked in your path unless you do it thr right way.
