hahhahahahaha, i feel like i'm walking into a trap here, Emanuel! :) :)

But that's how debian does it also.

Naturally, if you're on a shared system, or want to compare two different
versions of emacs, or a lot of other cases, this might not be the best path.

But i do think for getting emacs under your fingers quickly, it's probably
the shortest path. :) :) :)
