I'm aware of it but was wanted to create something that I can just quickly point at a running system and make a backup. This is a narrower use case and I accept that it's not for everyone.

I understand but in this case the quicker solution has potentially fatal flaws.

With time I have learned to speed-run less things because I've been bitten by the quick and dirty solution probably at least 100 times.
