It’s not “a big deal” if the user knows about, but the phrasing in macOS is maliciously bad - I sent a build from my machine to a coworker and when they “naively” ran it, the pop up that came up didn’t say “this program is unsigned” it said “this program is damaged and will now be deleted” (I don’t remember the exact phrasing but it made it sound like a virus or damaged download, not like an unsigned program).

I don't know about that. Or at least, I won't say they are bad

There are sets of deep roots in play here.

Phrasing struggles are rooted in the differences in these systems, and unless we have spent time in each, struggle seems likely.

That said, I spent time on the Apple side of the computing house early on... I know it helps.
