I don't really see, why I'd install something from some github repository if I can get it from a moreutils package that I like to have installed anyway.

Then don't. `vipe` from `moreutils` is acknowledged in this project's readme.

I don't have `moreutils` installed; it's plausible that someone might want just the single package, in which case `tap` would seems OK as an alternative.

I think you're specifically saying that the "vipe" command does this:

moreutils is great. Unfortunately, moreutils parallel conflicts with GNU parallel :(
