I can repro this locally as well. Interesting if it's inconsistent with Apple docs and when Gatekeeper should be firing, as running stuff locally without distributing/downloading is somewhat out of scope for notarization. Reached

The Gatekeeper behavior is specific to running things from Finder (not Terminal), and only if you downloaded it via a browser that sets the com.apple.quarantine xattr. Two posts from Apple dev support (Cmd+F "eskimo") describe thi
