Follow-up Comment #5, bug #43206 (project octave):
I think a pipe is cleaner because with the copy, you have to ensure that you
are using a good tmp file name, that the copy succeeds. Although disk space
is cheap, someone might be working on a relatively full partition that does
not have room for the original file, the copy, and the uncompressed extracted
contents of the archive. I think it would be better to avoid the unnecessary
copy.
