Umm. It doesn't work like that.
Installers have a lot of system dependencies and when those
dependencies change in various ways, installers have to be
modified just to keep up with the changes for the exact same
feature set.
I assume you are only referring to anaconda here or do you have any
other installer you can point to that behaves like this?
Pointing out how the installer currently works does not change my
opinion on the fact that if an installer ( any installer ) cannot
run on his own bits isolated from the package set he is about
install is a design flaw and is something that should be corrected (
from my pov ).
