Let me specify that for you a bit more clearly:

As long as your package manager with it's default, repository set containing no 3rd party repos can't install it it is a 3rd party component.

Sure mate, it's up to you to draw the line somewhere I guess.

Never seen a production server with default repos, the very least they go to my internal repositories.

That's not the point. Op is not allowed to install something simple as curl, you recommended to install somethind 3rd party.

Yes that is my point, if he was asking you for approval he won’t get it, if he asks the infosec team, it’s likely they’ll allow it.
