Those measures (and bypass methods) can be improved to more loudly tell the user of what could happen, and the risks associated though. Them being there doesn't mean they can't be improved. A ton of these malware types have come out long after these messages were (possibly arbitrarily) designed and written. I've heard of changes with Windows Defender in this respect (to more accurately reflect current threats like ransomware) but I haven't heard of Apple doing anything similar.
