Except that there are whole swaths of tools and applications that cannot be published at all due to limitations of Sandbox
You're right, just ditch whole damned sandbox thing because a few tools won't work.
Or in an ideal world where we didn't have to decide between one extreme or the other, we could sandbox everything that doesn't have a problem with it, reserving the exceptions for those few tools that don't get along well with a sandbox. (Vetting the hell out of those non-sandbox apps, of course, because we don't want to "<make our computer> limited to the whim of someone on the other side of the world" which in this case wouldn't be Apple.)
