Opening ZIP natively in folder app really is just user friendly practices. Ofc it's easier to able to browse its content that way.
You shouldn't need 3rd party software for things that simple.
The problem being average people don't tend to understand what a zip file is, I regularly have to explain that you can't run an executable from a zip
You can though, Windows just prompts you to extract it if needed and it's all fairly user friendly.
