The problem is that to make a binary usable from the shell, you get to
install it in the user's filesystem.

To make an emacs program usable from emacs, it's not enough to just
put the .el file in the right directory, you also have to install it
into the obarray of their emacs; that is done be evaluating autoload
forms.
