I was expecting it to output an installESD.dmg file, but it's .app.tar. Is it still able to be used to distribute via Self Service?

We are unable to distribute it using the .app.tar output, case is open with support.

I tested this method successfully today. The zipping took a (little) while like 10(?) minutes, but then everything went fine with the .app.tar
Basically I created two policies (one for caching the .app.tar and the other for install cached.
