I don't understand these style of responses. I think the point is that this "feature" makes the OS shittier.

For the average user who expects to be able to block malicious traffic via something like Little Snitch, but still expects their OS updates, App Store, etc to work, or for someone who "knows better"?

The average user isn't using Little Snitch. And if they are, the app provides default profiles for this sort of thing.
