Local installation is still not really a practical solution when you work e.g. on customer machines, on machines of another team, or generally if you work on many different machines. You still need to be aware of the standard tools and know how to use them when needed.
I mean, I get it — I used to locally install vim on machines that only had vi, to make my muscle memory be functional when editing files. But it’s not the same as a core tool just being available by default so you don’t have to ever concern yourself with any alternatives.
