Perhaps I worded it poorly, but I was addressing the idea "the audience for a packaged Mac application", which to me suggests a less technical user. Which is fine for non-dev tools, but I wouldn't consider a user needing a database to fall into that category. (though perhaps that's true of developers who don't write SQL, but only rely on an ORM)

Not necessarily. I used Postgres.app prior to switching to Docker Compose. It's a great option if you work on one app, don't need to switch between multiple versions, and don't need to work with a lot of different extensions or configs. I personally prefer keeping all of my config in source code, in the context of my application.
