Hey @dombarnes! Thanks for reporting this. Definitely an oversight on our end and I think it should be a small change.
Purely out of curiosity, why do you want Fig.app to be in ~/Applications rather than /Applications?
Purely a mental organisation thing for me. Mines a work computer so the stuff that is more general use (slack, Xcode, etc) go in /Applications and all the extra apps I use to make life easier go in my user folder.

This is also useful on user accounts that don't have admin permissions, or for when you don't want it to be installed system-wide (eg. partner's laptop).
Generalising this to "create symlinks to wherever the app is running from" will also allow people to install to, say, /Applications/Development/Fig.app
and use fig doctor if they move it.
