> MacOS is still more open and the world didn't collapse
the world didn't collapse because the world is not using laptops/desktops as dominant computers for many many years.
Ordinary people use phones. Anyone using laptop is to a degree professional especially in any third world country. Somebody who mostly abandoned using laptop literally yesterday told me "I got a new laptop from work but I'll just get a virus in a week won't I". This is the adversarial reality the rose-eyed takes about freedom of computing are contending with. Maybe most of them live in the past when computers were used by tech literate and blackhat hacking was in intancy.
Laptop and computers still is used as dominant for writing software including for mobile - you know software that could be infected. Still no collapse. Smartphones were not main device 10 years ago and people did bank transfers on laptop and world didn't collapse 10 years ago

Yes and infected Xcode and various SDKs you get on your laptop are actually the biggest threat to iOS security (other than just literally malicious devs). Devs torrenting an xcode and then infecting their users is a thing.
