Normally you run your application as a user and therefore the application does not have any write access to system directories llike /usr/local/bin. Reading is possible of course. But if you don't have write privileges on your application path, you also cannot store any files there.
So it does not matter where the application is located in the system unless you are using it as root, which is not advisable.

And if root installs software under /opt then it should also be read-restricted for normal users and normally these dirs are also added to PATH to comfortably execute them.
