Yes, but that's extra effort, for a single platform. In order to properly asuage the goons that whine about no installer, they'd need to compile up such a binary or installer for every OS, for each unique distro.

My point is not that it is impossible, but that to even gain much for everyone, it takes A LOT of extra work. The source code for Python, with build context included, is easier than most other options, and the people asking for more are entitled twats.
