I think you overestimate most people wrt computer knowledge.
Plus sometimes you don’t have a choice in what you install. I recently had to install Kind for a class I was taking and their only install options on linux are just that: downloading binaries and moving them to /bin.
First of all, that’s not their only install option as far as I can tell. I can see an incantation which automatically pulls and installs it, and I see a step-by-step make build instruction set.
Both of which can be relatively easily googled because they’re both only 3 commands. And, if you’re on a Linux machine that means you probably have access to the man pages for make, mv and cd.
