If the filename does not contain install or setup there is no 
elevation at all, so nothing is circumvented. As Kagamin noted 
this is to keep legacy installers working in a way that your 
average non-poweruser can use.

If you wish to use these words in your filename without 
elevating, just add a manifest, which you should do anyways ^^
