Your argument would be valid if we were still using Mac OS X 10.0 or 10.1, but as of 10.2 and later, the application is automatically prebound when it is launched. (The "Optimizing" phase of installing just updates the prebinding.) So the installer is not necessary, except for maybe a few people who are afraid of drag-and-drop installs...
