I would guess most of the things you'd want to do on a mac, you can just do as a user - - you can already access everything in the user's home directory for example.

>you can just do as a user - - you can already access everything in the user's home directory for example As opposed to what other operating system? Even Linux with SELINUX allows that...

  As opposed to Android, iOS… and some rare case of sandbox linux apps (small subset of flatpak, snap, etc.)

    If we're talking about sandboxing, then macOS has that too. Apps installed through the MAS have specific sandboxes they can play in and require permission for the others.

Not in macOS Mojave. Sensitive directories (Safari, Mail, etc.) are inaccessible to apps without permission.
