A couple of points:
1) Apple has much more leverage on iOS because it has a bigger market share and many more iOS users than macOS.
2) macOS has traditionally been an open platform
3) Many desktop app developers wouldn't be able to keep installing and running the products the way their do it now. For example, Adobe has an app called Creative Cloud that manages installs, licenses, active computers, and other things. It's practically malware at this point, but if you want to use Adobe apps there is no other way.
