You can run unsigned software on an M1 Mac, clicking “run anyway” isn’t that hard lol

That is untrue for native arm apps. The OS actually requires signing. If you are running an x86 app through Rosetta you can currently avoid code signing requirement.

What’s the big deal? They don’t require it to be notarized. You can self-sign.

Quite frankly no one should be running unsigned binaries regardless of OS or architecture.
