How to completely reinstall Julia on Mac

If you download the .tar.gz archive ( julia-1.9.4-macaarch64.tar.gz), you can expand it anywhere. Then create a script that will set the PATH and export the DEPOT path (a la VSCode_Julia_portable/assets/install.sh at 689fcb996cff4cb858b88e37fe641f2b99816e8b · PetrKryslUCSD/VSCode_Julia_portable · GitHub, and VSCode_Julia_portable/assets/install.sh at 689fcb996cff4cb858b88e37fe641f2b99816e8b · PetrKryslUCSD/VSCode_Julia_portable · GitHub). And, voila, you have a “portable” Julia on your Mac. No toes have been stepped on in the process.
