Unless it has a door out of the garden, like Android's "install unsigned apps" toggle. It's the best solution to this "issue", but so far only certain Android phones offer it (and all but the Nexus series are locked down in other ways).

If Apple could just hide a Jailbreak button under 10 pages of warnings in iTunes, this wouldn't be an issue. But they don't, so fear of a locked-down Mac is reasonable. But, as you conclude, that isn't necessarily a bad thing.
