Sorry, I don't think you're dumb for thinking this could happen, but I simply disagree that the Mac malware "market" is going to resemble the WinAPI market any time in the near future.
Thank goodness for that, I shudder each time I hear of someone using a Mac or Linux antivirus program! Not because viruses are so terrible, more that the antiviruses are.
My main concern is how long Linux and Mac users (e.g. myself) can continue to be considered comfortably immune to such threats. I'm glad to hear you think things will be safe for the Mac for years to come, esp. since that would mean desktop Linux should be safe for a long time.
