Personally, not in the slightest! I made a move on Linux to .deb (soon to be AppImage or Snap), then on macOS to app bundle, and most recently InnoSetup on Windows about a year ago. Bundling is a lot easier when the installation process itself doesn't require the JRE. And I've barely scratched the surface of InnoSetup's features but already got numerous things that were more difficult to achieve via NBI. A question back would actually be, for you why NBI?
