A GNU/Linux install bundle should have a reparented FHS-like tree, possibly wrapped in an image file (Flatpak/Snap/AppImage). In such a tree, the libexec binaries will never be in `$prefix/bin` (the applicationDirPath), but always somewhere under `$prefix/libexec` or `$prefix/lib`.
Windows and macOS are different and I believe you when you say that looking in the applicationDirPath makes sense there.
