I ran desktop Linux (Manjaro) for years in an enterprise job with certified hardware, as a Linux sysadmin. I regularly had issues and spent 5-10% of my time troubleshooting the OS or a janky application.

Conversely, macOS is broadly 'production grade'. It mostly 'just works' (with a number of tweaks - including SIP -, hacks etc on initial config, most power users automate with dotfiles). It has a drastically better UI, first class terminals and unixy support, and most code built for it has a higher level of shine.

I am confident enough to deploy alternate security implementations for the convenience of full FS control, as I know many power users are. Disabling SIP is a bad idea for those who don't understand it, the same as disabling Windows Defender or forwarding NAT on your router.
