It does not create copies of any important scripts, it only creates
copies of the stubs that use texmfstart to find the scripts.
There should be no problems with that approach except even if
you forget it occasionally, and it will very likely be added to
ctxtools --update sometime soon, removing the need of post-install
actions completely.

The whole point of texmfstart is that Hans tries to hide kpsewhich
(because it is not present in all distros) and the implementation
language of the actual scripts (because that may change over time).
