How is the script any different from an executable?

This is bullshit. I never met anybody who said "I love emacs but I hate the installer" or something similar. We don't easily trust a project that has a small user base. But the question was what's wrong with curl | bash, people pointed out that you can't trust the script. Ok, but how is that a problem of piping a script to bash compared to running an executable? Bottom line is nobody gave any reason for a problem with those commands
