tar are not executable. J linux tar install file can be install 
into any folders depending on where you untar them.

alternate deb install files must be installed using dpkg -i
otherwise it won't work correctly because different type of
files will be installed into different folders under /usr 
following debian recommendation.

So I suspected you had installed using deb on Pi4. 

install-usr.sh is optional and used to install J system under 
/usr folders similar to that in deb. This is useful for 
non-debian linux such as rhel/centos where deb is not applicable. 

install-usr.sh applies to debian itself too.

Another alternative is untar tar file on /opt or others system
folders and then chmod 755/644 on the J install folder there.
