What this really does is train users to bypass protections. As anyone who has owned a mac can attest, I now basically think nothing of the potential perils of doing "right click -> open -> ok" because I have to do it ALL THE TIME. It's getting to the point where it's the same on windows. More info -> run anyway is becoming a useless annoyance. I would note that at one point SSL certificates were kind of in the same boat. Users clicked through web warnings as a matter of course. The thing that changed is that we were able to reduce the financial barrier to certs to literally $0. If the same can be done for this nonsense, we will be in much better shape. I have already made my choice on risk when I chose to download the software from the developer and execute it. A prompt for a first time trust might be the limit of what I'm OK with including, but any stronger warning or making it difficult to proceed is really only reasonable to do if some 3rd party is compromising a choice I have already made.
