Dunno how it works now, but at university they used something called
"store" to distribute newly installed software, which ends under /store/
on all the various *nix servers. Symlinking on every server in /usr/bin
doesn't seem too likely to happen, and I think that you're generalizing
away larger systems with many users, IMHO. 

YMMV.
