My general issue with this approach is that you either have to bundle
compiled bits for every platform and configuration (ballooning the
tarball size due to less compression), or you have a custom npm script
that executes on install and downloads the appropriate binary files
for the current particular platform (this means an internet connection
is required wherever you want to install) from some place.
