It's true that some file types can be compressed into even smaller sizes.
I still do not understand the reason why advanced users utilize the command line parameters,batch files, or why they create Winuha self-extracting rar/zip files.

As for you second point the self extracting files are on the one hand service (more comfortable) on the other hand you guarantee that everybody can use it, since the user doesn't have to have any unpacking programs.
Didn't get your point 'bout .bat files. They're simple and small and often used for connecting printers.
