This is true for the code part, but executables can also contain data does compress well and maybe not be compressed inside the EXE (e.g. - to avoid the need to decompress it on every run)
Well sure but most exes I download are installers, where decompression only needs to happen once.
I've been on Linux for so long, I already forgot about having to download a zip file with an installer that installs a downloader that downloads and installs the actual application.
