Not at all. Generally every mouse click required to get an app running will slash your userbase in size by some staggering amount, like 20-50%. I can't quite recall the exact number or where I've seen this, but I've definitely heard this fact from multiple sources, including at Google. Try counting how many clicks are required to get Chrome on your system and you'll be surprised how optimised it is.
Companies measure this, they're very sensitive to it of course. They want as many conversions as possible, but they can see that the more complex the install process gets, the fewer users make it through the other end. It's entirely normal for Zoom to want to simplify as much as possible.
