Seconding the second recommendation there. That has the advantage that you can guarantee that perl will be there (I want to say I've heard rumors that it might be going away in future OS X releases), that it will be the version you want/expect (and also can target a newer perl because the stock OS' is a long in the tooth 5.18 for 10.15), and that it has the modules you want installed (possibly even going as far as to segregate those into a local::lib hierarchy just to be able to upgrade those separately).
