The breaks I mentioned are just whilst on Intel though. The change to Apple Silicon assuredly broke an ton of stuff but I'm not even counting those.

DAW developers have historically advised users not to upgrade MacOS versions until it is explicitly supported and professionals in the space resist updates at all costs.
