Indeed, that security command was definitely a misnomer.
However these days it's not as easy, you get a pop-up for every app that wants to access the keychain.
The bigger problem though is that Apple resorts to pop-ups way too much. Installing a new Mac with my work stuff I get 30 of them. This causes fatigue and totally fails to solve the problem.
In fact it does the exact same thing that Apple blamed Vista for in their Mac vs PC ad. In fact macOS is worse now than Vista ever was. https://youtu.be/VuqZ8AqmLPY
