How do you do this?  I thought this project provides the files but not
an installer?
Install vim from vim.org, then as needed, overlay with contents from tuxproject build.

This page does not provide much help, I can't recomment giving this page
to a Vim beginner.

7zip is not a standard Windows tool, requiring to install another tool
makes it more difficult for the user.
Yeah, agreed. I also did not realize that "vim without cream" provided full set of files.

I guess the use case for :RuntimeUpdate is not clear to me. Do you really want a user (perhaps inexperienced at that) to update only the runtime files without updating the binary? It just seems less error prone to update everything together.
