Signed is not the same to Sandboxed on macOS, afaik.

It's not, but sandboxing requires code signing.
Watch the security talk. macOS is on the path to adopt iOS permissions model and long term roadmap is to apply the sandbox to everything, with the option to explicitly disable it on per-case basis.

A path similar to how Windows 10 is now converging the Win32 and UWP sanbox models, or how ChromeOS sandboxes GNU/Linux processes.

I do not see where this is mentioned.

I will show it later then.
