Yeah I don't trust anyone's judgement whose installation process is:

  curl | sh

Of course not. Everyone knows you've got to do

    curl | sudo bash

Ah yeah, a .dmg installer that asks for sudo permissions is much safer /s

Why do people get hung op on this so much? You can just read the script before running it. Of course you won’t though, just like you don’t read the source of the .dmg installer.
