Surely better to have multiple OS-dependent zips than needlessly increased bandwidth requirements? Not sure how easy it is to set up the .conf to point to different bundled JRE's either? Although, if you're making OS-dependent files anyway, I'd suggest an app bundle for macOS and something like AppImage for Linux, neither of which require admin rights to run but are a bit friendlier. Not sure there is an easy to create comparable Windows option there!?
